Los Angeles placed Shohei Ohtani on the injured list, backdated to Sept. 8, ending any remaining hope of a mound return this season.
Shohei Ohtani was placed on the 15-day IL backdated to September 8 with ongoing left knee, right biceps, and neck issues. He had been largely ineffective over the prior two weeks, going 2-for-26 with no extra-base hits in seven games. Ohtani had not pitched since July 3 and his season on the mound is reportedly over.
