NEW YORK —Shohei Ohtani’s participation in game three of the World Series will be a matter of pain tolerance according to Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave
Roberts, who fully expects him to play.
It wasn’t quite the decisive “He’s playing tomorrow” message that Roberts sent ESPN in a text, but the veteran manager sounded confident that Ohtani, who suffered a partially dislocated left shoulder in game two on Saturday, would be good to go. Tagged out, Ohtani stayed on the ground grimacing in pain and holding his left arm until medical staff came out to assist him.
Roberts said after the game that the Dodgers were “encouraged” that Ohtani had good range of motion and strength, but wouldn’t know Ohtani’s status until medical imaging scans were done.Roberts said Ohtani would go through a series of more demanding workouts, from hitting balls off a tee to batting practice in a batting cage.“I don’t see him being compromised,” Roberts said. “It’s the left shoulder, which is the back shoulder, so I don’t see how that affects his hitting, if he’s able to go.
