The Los Angeles Dodgers have postponed Shohei Ohtani's live batting practice session due to precautionary reasons after he was hit in the left foot. Initially scheduled for Monday, the session is now set for Tuesday following a travel day. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts confirmed that Ohtani, who is recovering from elbow surgery, is doing fine even after limping to first base post-injury. Ohtani remains an offensive powerhouse, leading the National League in several hitting stats, but his return to pitching is still uncertain, likely occurring after the All-Star break.
The Dodgers decided to postpone Ohtani's live batting practice session one more day as a precautionary measure, allowing him extra time after being hit in the foot.
Although Ohtani limped to first base after being hit by the pitch, he was not injured, and the Dodgers are ensuring his well-being by delaying practice.
Ohtani's operation has not affected his batting, as he continues to lead the National League in key offensive metrics despite being on the disabled list.
There is still no confirmed date for when the reigning National League MVP will return to pitcher duties, but it could be after the All-Star break.
