Shohei Ohtani Sidelined by Bicep Tightness After 110-Pitch Outing

Shohei Ohtani exited Friday's game against the Padres in the seventh inning due to right bicep tightness after throwing a season-high 110 pitches. He will be held out of Saturday's lineup for recovery. The team is taking a cautious approach, and he is unlikely to pitch in the All-Star Game following a schedule adjustment. This follows previous concerns regarding his availability and the decision to push his next pitching start to July 10 to manage his workload.
