Los Angeles Dodgers player Shohei Ohtani is set to undergo a procedure on his left knee. The procedure, which involves draining fluid from the knee, is intended to relieve ongoing irritation. This will cause him to miss the upcoming All-Star Game in Philadelphia.

Ohtani will have the procedure after a series of games against the Arizona Diamondbacks, in which he is expected to play as a designated hitter. His participation in the game was adjusted to avoid exacerbating the discomfort in his knee.

Further details on Ohtani's condition and the procedure are available from the source, KPRC 2 / Click2Houston.
