Log: That’s true, it must have hurt. When you think about it calmly, there’s a risk that could affect his career, so it’s a tough decision.

Chako: But I heard he went home after the game with a heat patch on!

Navi: It’s believed that using a heat patch can help alleviate pain.

Log: Exactly. For a professional athlete, taking care of their body is crucial, and I hope he recovers quickly. It can also impact his performance in games.

Admin’s Note

I’m worried about the news of Ohtani’s injury, but I’m impressed by his professional attitude. Continuing to play even after getting hit by a pitch shows his determination as a player. I’ve heard he put on some ice and went home early, but the health of the players is the top priority. I hope he takes the time to rest and comes back strong for the next game. The Dodgers won as well, so that should boost the morale of the entire team.
