洛杉矶道奇队球星大谷翔平因右肱二头肌和左膝盖疼痛，暂停了牛棚投球训练 [1]。这位四度MVP表示"右肱二头肌未达100%" [1]，自7月3日以来便未在比赛中投球 [1]。尽管身体不适，大谷仍继续以指定打者身份出战。在对西雅图水手队的比赛中，他打出赛季第10支开局全垒打，3打4带来3分打点 [1]，但道奇队最终以7-6落败 [1]。
道奇队经理罗伯茨表示，在大谷健康状况改善的前提下，预计他将在季后赛投球 [1]。目前，大谷作为道奇球员的开局全垒打数与已故球员戴维·洛普斯并列历史第二，共28支 [1]。
Shohei Ohtani continues to produce at the plate despite lingering injuries that have sidelined his pitching. The Los Angeles Dodgers' four-time MVP revealed that soreness in his right biceps and left knee prevented him from conducting a bullpen session last week [1]. "My biceps is not 100%," Ohtani stated, explaining the setback in his recovery [1]. He has not pitched in a game since July 3, 2024, yet remains active as the team's designated hitter [1].
In the Dodgers' 7-6 loss to the Seattle Mariners, Ohtani demonstrated his offensive prowess with three hits in four at-bats, including a double, three runs batted in, and one run scored [1]. He also added a walk to his performance [1]. The outburst marked his 10th home run to start the season [1], placing him at 28 homers for his tenure with the Dodgers, tying him with the late David Lopes for the second-most in franchise history [1].
Manager Dave Roberts expressed confidence that Ohtani will return to pitching duties in the postseason, noting that it remains "highly unlikely" the star will skip October competition [1]. The team's expectation hinges on Ohtani's continued improvement in his current physical condition [1].
