Thursday's quality start may have been Ohtani's last time on the mound at The Big A. The Angels are reportedly listening to trade offers for the reigning AL MVP.
Shohei Ohtani dazzled batters with his wicked slider, blew them away with his 100-mph fastball and repeatedly pitched out of trouble while racking up 11 strikeouts.
Ohtani produced his sixth consecutive start with double-digit strikeouts, but he also yielded eight hits and two runs over six innings. Ohtani leads the majors with nine double-digit strikeout performances, and he pitched six scoreless innings with 11 strikeouts in Atlanta last week before the Braves tagged him for six runs in the seventh. The Angels scored no runs while Ohtani was pitching in either of those two starts, and Ohtani went 0 for 4 as their leadoff hitter against Texas.
Spencer Howard pitched five innings of three-hit ball on his 26th birthday for the Rangers, who snapped a three-game skid while opening the final series on their 11-game trip. Although Howard gave up three extra-base hits, the Angels didn't advance those runners and didn't get another baserunner against him.
Luis Rengifo tripled, doubled and singled for the Halos, who failed to win three straight games for the first time since June 19. Los Angeles has lost 16 of 21 during its freefall from playoff contention.
