The fact that Shohei Ohtani will be pitching for the Angels in this contest is sufficient enough. Ohtani has been outstanding to start this campaign and appears to be the favorite to win the American League Cy Young. In 28 innings this season, he has only allowed eight hits. In his five starts, Ohtani has only allowed two runs from opposing teams.
Although Ohtani has been excellent on the mound, he has walked 15 times. Although he has been so good, Ohtani occasionally slips up. In this game, the Athletics must use patience and put runners on base. Oakland has done a respectable job with this as evidenced by their below league average chase percentage, they must, however, focus much more on Ohtani.
