Summary

Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani will miss the upcoming All-Star Game in Philadelphia because of ongoing discomfort in his left knee, the club announced on Friday. Ohtani, who was the National League's leading vote-getter and the fans' choice at designated hitter, was also a candidate to pitch for the NL and his Dodgers manager Dave Roberts on Tuesday. Instead, he'll miss his scheduled Friday night start against the Arizona Diamondbacks and sit out the Midsummer Classic altogether.
