Shohei Ohtani, the two-way star for the Los Angeles Angels, has been ruled out for the remainder of the season due to an oblique injury. Ohtani, who has been a key contributor to the Angels this season, suffered the injury during a game on September 2nd.
The injury is a huge blow to the Angels, as Ohtani had been a major part of their success this season. He was batting .286 with 18 home runs and 62 RBIs in 106 games, while also posting a 3.31 ERA in 10 starts. His ability to contribute both offensively and defensively made him a valuable asset to the team.
The Angels have not yet announced how they plan to replace Ohtani for the remainder of the season. However, they may look to other players on their roster to fill the void.
Ohtani’s injury is a disappointment for baseball fans, as he has been one of the most exciting players in the league this season. He is the first player since Babe Ruth in 1919 to record at least 10 home runs and 10 pitching starts in a single season. His unique ability to play both ways has made him a fan favorite and an integral part of the Angels’ success this season.
The Angels will now have to find a way to make up for the loss of Ohtani for the remainder of the season. It will be a difficult task, but one that they must face if they hope to make a run in the playoffs.
