Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani celebrates as he runs the bases after hitting a go-ahead two-run home run during the seventh inning of their game against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium. LOS ANGELES — While the Home Run Derby will not happen for Shohei Ohtani, the All-Star Game is a full go.
A number of Dodgers remain in line to be named to backup roles or pitching spots, including Hernandez, Freddie Freeman, Will Smith, Tyler Glasnow and Gavin Stone. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts advocated for Freeman to replace the injured Bryce Harper at first base. Pitchers and reserves will be announced Sunday.
Ohtani is the first player elected to start at designated hitter in four straight All-Star Games. He was an unprecedented two-way All-Star from 2021-23 when he was with the Angels, but he isn’t pitching this season while he recovers from reconstructive elbow surgery.he was not likely to participate in the Home Run Derby
Betts has been on the injured list since June 17 after he fractured his hand when he was hit by a pitch from the Kansas City Royals’ Dan Altavilla. He is about two weeks into a six-to-eight week recovery program. “It can’t be harder than anything I have taken on this year so it doesn’t matter,” Betts said about potentially changing positions again. “Anything is going to be hard at this point so I’m up for whatever challenge.”Former owner Walter O’Malley will be added to the Dodgers’ Ring of Honor in an Aug. 10 ceremony before a game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
