The Dodgers head to New York up 2-0 in the World Series, but the attention now shifts to the status of superstar Shohei Ohtani, who injured his shoulder in Game 2.
The Los Angeles Dodgers pulled off a 4-2 victory over the New York Yankees in Game 2 of the World Series, taking a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.
However, the win was dampened by a shoulder injury to Shohei Ohtani, who got hurt in the seventh inning after attempting to steal a base.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts later announced that Ohtani had partially dislocated his left shoulder.
The Dodgers took control in the third inning, breaking a 1-1 tie with Teoscar Hernández's two-run home run, followed by a solo shot from Freddie Freeman to make it 4-1.
Even with the uncertainty of Ohtani’s injury, the Dodgers head to New York with a commanding series lead, a buffer that could prove crucial as the Yankees host the next three games of the World Series.
Game 3 is scheduled for October 29 (PHL time).
