Ohtani earns another win despite giving up five runs in a nightmarish fourth inning and falls a home run short of a cycle at the plate in an 8-7 victory.
ANAHEIM — Shohei Ohtani can still manage to rise to the occasion, even on days when his electric pitch mix decides to betray him.
It happened again at home in his next outing when he issued five walks against the Washington Nationals, including two in the first inning, but did not allow a run over the outing. He hit a batter in that start too. What saved the Angels on Thursday was the offense, with Ohtani even contributing in that area. The Angels had their own five-run inning in the third with Ohtani starting the scoring with an RBI double to left center.
The A’s scored twice more in the inning when Shea Langeliers hit a home run to center after Jace Peterson was hit by a pitch. In his six innings of work, Ohtani gave up five runs on three hits with two walks, eight strikeouts and a career-high three hit batters. Carlos Estevez pitched the ninth inning for his fifth save in five chances.
