Angels pitcher Shohei Ohtani started the open game against the Rockies in Scottsdale, Arizona on the 25th (Japan’s 26th time) as “No. 2 designated hitter.” He pitched the first No. 5 solo in the first at-bat for the first time. With 1 hit and 1 RBI in 3 at-bats, his batting average was .571 and OPS 1,701. Before the game, outfielder Mike Trout, the main weapon, responded to the press coverage. He praised the double-wielding man who showed a smooth finish when pitching: “It’s like adding two stars.”

Angels pitcher Shohei Ohtani started the open game against the Rockies in Scottsdale, Arizona on the 25th (Japan’s 26th time) as “No. 2 designated hitter.” He pitched the first No. 5 solo in the first at-bat for the first time. With 1 hit and 1 RBI in 3 at-bats, his batting average was .571 and OPS 1,701. Before the game, outfielder Mike Trout, the main weapon, responded to the press coverage. He praised the double-wielding man who showed a smooth finish when pitching: “It’s like adding two stars.”

In 2005, he hit 5 home runs in Thailand, the most open game in Thailand, alongside Hideki Matsui (Yankees). Throw a 100+ mile fastball and split to build a mountain of strikeouts. The strongest active MLB player was also highly acclaimed for such a dual-wielding Otani.

“It’s fun to be a witness. That’s what we all expected. It’s like getting two stars. It’s definitely a great addition. If he stays healthy, he really helps.”

The Angels’ top players moved to their home base, Anaheim, on the 26th (27). This day was also the final round of the open race at Arizona for Otani. Trout’s words should generate great confidence in the full rebirth of the double wield.
