It is the first time that pitcher Sasaki has been placed on the injured list since moving to the Major Leagues.
佐々木投手は、9日に相手の本拠地フェニックスで行われたダイヤモンドバックス戦に、プロ野球時代も含めてプロ入り後初めて中5日で登板し、1回に2本のホームランを打たれるなど5回途中5失点で三振を1つも奪えず、マウンドを降りました。
Pitcher Sasaki took the mound on five days rest for the first time in his professional career, including his time in Japanese pro baseball, in a game against the Diamondbacks held at their home stadium in Phoenix on the 9th. He gave up two home runs in the first inning and allowed five runs before being pulled in the middle of the fifth inning, without recording a single strikeout.
ロバーツ監督によりますと、佐々木投手はこの登板のあと右腕の張りを訴えていたということで、ドジャースは13日、佐々木投手を、右肩の痛みのため、15日間のけが人リストに入れると発表しました。
According to Manager Roberts, after this appearance, pitcher Sasaki complained of tightness in his right arm, so on the 13th, the Dodgers announced that Sasaki would be placed on the 15-day injured list due to pain in his right shoulder.

大リーグ1年目の佐々木投手は、開幕から先発ローテーションの一角を担っているものの、プロ野球時代に最速165キロを計測したストレートは平均154キロほどにとどまり、コントロールにも不安を抱えるなど、ここまで8試合に先発して1勝1敗、防御率は4。
In his first year in the Major Leagues, pitcher Sasaki has been part of the starting rotation since the opening of the season. However, his fastball, which reached a top speed of 165 km/h during his professional baseball days, now averages around 154 km/h, and there are concerns about his control. So far, he has started 8 games, with a record of 1 win and 1 loss, and an ERA of 4.
72となっていました。
佐々木投手はプロ野球時代もけがに悩まされ、1軍で登板した4年間で一度も規定投球回に達したことはなく、さらに厳しい大リーグの舞台でシーズンを通して健康を維持できるかが課題となっていました。
Sasaki, even during his professional baseball career in Japan, was troubled by injuries and never reached the required number of innings in any of his four years pitching in the first league. Whether he can stay healthy throughout the season in the even more demanding Major Leagues has been a concern.
ドジャースは、サイ・ヤング賞を3回受賞しているベテランのカーショー投手の復帰が17日に見込まれているものの、サイ・ヤング賞を2回受賞しているスネル投手や、昨シーズン開幕投手を務めたグラスナウ投手など、先発ローテーションの柱として期待されたピッチャーのけがが相次いでいて、佐々木投手の離脱は大きな打撃となります。
The Dodgers expect veteran pitcher Kershaw, a three-time Cy Young Award winner, to return on the 17th, but with injuries to pitchers like Snell, a two-time Cy Young Award winner, and Glasnow, who was the opening day starter last season—both of whom were expected to be key members of the starting rotation—the loss of Sasaki is a significant blow.
