Ohtani (knee/biceps) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Nationals, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Ohtani will sit out a third consecutive game Saturday as he continues to manage soreness in his knee and biceps. The Dodgers remain hopeful that he won't require a trip to the injured list, though a move may be necessary if he isn't able to return to the lineup within the next several days. Dalton Rushing will serve as Los Angeles' designated hitter and bat seventh.
