- Ohtani admitted he will not be at full strength but emphasized his obligation, stating, "I do pride myself on playing every day" as he prepares for the postseason.
- Dodgers manager Dave Roberts confirmed Ohtani will be in the lineup as the team chases its third consecutive World Series ring, viewing the star as critical to the offensive strategy.
