- Shohei Ohtani left the pitching mound with a Dodgers trainer partway through the fourth inning of Wednesday’s game against the Cincinnati Reds.
- Ohtani returned after his second Tommy John surgery following the 2023 season and had been gradually increasing his innings pitched.
- In his seventh start back, Ohtani threw 51 pitches, including six consecutive balls with two wild pitches, and exited the game during an at-bat.
