Japanese superstar slugger Shohei Ohtani and starting pitcher Walker Buehler have overcome injuries to lift the Los Angeles Dodgers within a victory of their first World Series sweep since 1963.
Ohtani shrugged off a partially dislocated left shoulder to start as the Dodgers' leadoff batter while Buehler, who has twice undergone "Tommy John" ligament surgery, threw five shutout innings in a 4-2 Los Angeles triumph over the New York Yankees on Monday.
