second base

And, do you really want to risk a potential collision at second base on a double play and injure one of your superstars?

As the Dodgers announced Tuesday, Ohtani also suffered a torn labrum when he injured his left shoulder sliding into second base in Game 2 of the Fall Classic.

Torres refused to move from second base to third when the Yankees acquired Jazz Chisholm, so any team signing him knows where he wants to play.

He said that when he was injured while caught stealing second base in the seventh inning of the Dodgers’ Game 2 win, his initial concern was to stay on the bag.

Then there was the quiet heroics of Ohtani, who partially separated his shoulder on a slide into second base in the seventh inning of Saturday’s Game 2.
