Angels pitcher Shohei Ohtani pitched for the first time this season in an open game against the Athletics in Mesa, Arizona, fifth (Japan’s sixth half). In the first 2/3, 5 strikeouts, 2 walks, 3 hits and 1 run. The fastest of the four seams was 100 miles.

First time. I lost leader Kanha with a four seam and I got punch. Andras rounded the left wing line, but struck out Olson with a 100-mile four-seam fastball (approximately 161 km). He gave Chapman a walk, but struck out Moreland with a split.

At the second inning, Lauriano turned left. After striking out the pinder, he allowed Kemp to double in a timely fashion to right center. He walked Garcia, but struck out Kanha with a split. 41 I got off when I threw the ball. 24 balls were strikes.

Otani was found to have a muscle injury to his right forearm after the game against the Astros, the home point guard on August 2 (3) last year. After that, he devoted himself to hitting, pitching two games, 0 wins and 1 loss, and finished with a 37.80 ERA. He clocked the fastest 100 miles (approximately 161 km) in the camp’s second live BP (actual throwing practice) on February 27 (28). It was the first time in Japan and the United States that Odai crossed during the camp. 215 days have passed since the actual launch that day. Looking back at the interview response after the release, he seemed satisfied.

– Looking back at the first pitch in the battle royale.
“The number of balls was thrown firmly, and throwing with a runner on the back can only be done in real battles. I think that was good too.”

-Last year, you said you couldn’t move your arm.
“As it was the first time, I thought I should go relatively lightly. Especially the counting ball. I was like that, but when I got to the final decision, I felt like I was caught. The ball was strong, so that’s unique to the battle royale. I think it would be nice if he could throw in a good pitch when making the final decision. “

-Director Madon said he plans to turn around mid-day 5.
“If you don’t try, you won’t know what kind of cycle it will take. You can’t know the status in just one or two games. What happens when you throw 10 or 20 games? Second half. I wonder if it will be. I think it’s better if it’s released at such intervals, and I think you want settings that can do that. “

– A schedule adjustment is required. In particular.
“I need to think about the number of bullpen balls, and I don’t think I need to throw the force of the caught ball every day with all my might. I decided that while consulting, but I think it’s different for the pitcher to be different one day. I think. that it is necessary to experience that and see which one is the right one. “
