Game Preview
The Los Angeles Angels defeated the Baltimore Orioles in the opening of four games yesterday. While Shohei Ohtani didn’t have his best game on the mound as he allowed five runs in seven innings while only striking out five, he more than made up for it at the plate. He had a 4-5 line, a home run, three RBIs, a triple, and a walk.
He ended up earning his fifth victory on the mound this year, coming within a double of the cycle. Today, the Angels will start Chase Silseth in game two for the first time in 2018. The Angels will try to make it two in a row, and Silseth will aim to receive the same support that Ohtani did.
The Angels may have paid a price in order to avoid losing three games in a row, which is something they have only done once this season. Right-handed pitching, which the Angels will encounter today, has been crushed by Ohtani. He has six home runs and 20 RBIs while hitting .294 versus right-handed pitchers.
After taking a day off on Sunday, Mike Trout did come back. Even though he is only hitting.217 this month, he is still hitting.281 for the year. He went two for five with a walk in the game yesterday, which significantly raised his batting average for the month.
