After turning in one of the greatest World Series performances of all time against the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 3, Los Angeles Dodgers two-way All-Star Shohei Ohtani required medical attention.<\/p>\n
Ohtani went 4-for-4 with two home runs, two doubles and three runs batted in during the Dodgers’ 18-inning thriller in Game 3, drawing five intentional walks after he tied the game with his second home run of the game in the bottom of the seventh inning.<\/p>\n

Per The New York Post’s Jon Heyman, Ohtani received IVs after his historic Game 3 performance.<\/p>\n “Ohtani lasted into the seventh inning despite needing medical attention into the early morning that same day (the IVs were administered after midnight),” Heyman wrote.<\/a> “Ohtani didn\u2019t do interviews following his historic Game 3, when he reached base nine times out of nine before cramping up late, and it was first thought he\u2019d left early to catch up on sleep. But he was witnessed being hustled out by Dodgers security past about 1 a.m. local time \u2014 an hour after the game \u2014 after having been in the trainers room since his enthralling, exhausting performance.”<\/p>\n More news: Blue Jays Manager Disagrees With Dodgers Star’s Assessment of Game 5 Ohtani took the mound the following day and put together a solid start, lasting six innings while striking out six, however the Dodgers couldn’t keep up with the Blue Jays, and lost the game to even the series at two.<\/p>\n The Blue Jays didn’t stop there though, also claiming Game 5 in dominant fashion to take a 3-2 series lead back to Toronto for the final games of the Fall Classic.<\/p>\n More news: Drake Takes Shot at Shohei Ohtani After Blue Jays’ Dominant Win Over Dodgers The Dodgers desperately need to find their offense and bounce back up north, as they are on the verge of postseason elimination for the first time this October.
