Two Dodgers left tonight’s game against the Rockies, and fans immediately had questions.
Shohei Ohtani was hit on the right hand in the bottom of the 4th inning and was checked on by a trainer before staying in the game. But when Dalton Rushing pinch-hit for Ohtani in the 5th, concern quickly grew. Was it just because of the 10-1 score and Ohtani pitching tomorrow? We’re still waiting to hear from Dave Roberts postgame.
Meanwhile, Kiké Hernández left the game with a left oblique strain after appearing to get hurt running the bases. Cameras showed Hernández upset in the dugout as Dave Roberts spoke with him. Tough news considering Kiké just returned from the IL Monday after offseason elbow surgery and had been swinging a hot bat.
Full breakdown, latest updates, and what this could mean moving forward.
