Shohei Ohtani pitched perfect ball into the sixth inning, tied a career-best with 12 strikeouts and also had two hits and two RBIs to lead the Angels to a 6-0 shutout.
HOUSTON — Shohei Ohtani was winless with a 5.92 ERA in six starts against the Houston Astros entering Wednesday’s start.
“He was possessed tonight,” Maddon said. “That was a virtuoso performance from the beginning. He had a different look about him — and the stuff equaled the look.” “There’s no number,” Maddon said. “He was going to pitch a perfect game. I’m not going to get in the way of a player’s greatness – ever.”Shohei Ohtani belts a two-run double in the first inning of the Angels’ victory.“I was aware of it, but I knew the pitch count was getting up there, so I was thinking I probably wouldn’t be able to finish it off,” he said.“What it did more than anything is it relaxed Ohtani,” Baker said.
Blake Taylor took over and Andrew Velazquez reached on an error by first baseman Yuli Gurriel that allowed another run to score. Ohtani then hit a two-run double to left field to make it 6-0. Ohtani struck out the first two batters before retiring Alex Bregman on a flyball to end the first. He struck out Yordan Alvarez in the second before Kyle Tucker and Gurriel flied out.
