Ohtani took the mound Sunday afternoon against the Oakland Athletics with a sold out crowd waiting to see their phenom show his stuff on the mound. The matchup will get underway at 1:07 p.m. ET and NBC Sports - California will be televising the game.
The Oakland Athletics and Los Angeles Angels meet Sunday in Major League Baseball action at Angel Stadium.
Although he isn't hitting against the A's, Ohtani also homered in three consecutive games earlier in the Angels' homestand. They've lost 4.0 units for moneyline gamblers this year and 2.0 units ATS. In those two games, the Angels scored 8 runs per game. They've gained 4.3 units for bettors taking the moneyline and 3.1 units ATS. The Los Angeles Angels are 4-1 this season when scoring more than three runs. In the 12th, with Kenley Jansen on the mound, McCutchen laced another single into right field and tied the career-high mark he set back in May 2010, with five hits.
Kendall Graveman was nothing close to ideal on the mound for the A's.
Babe Ruth was the last American League player prior to Ohtani to homer in three straight games in the same season he started a game as a pitcher. Los Angeles will figure out how to weave him into the batting lineup as the season progresses, and Ohtani has already picked up his first win as a pitcher, alleviating any pressure that might come in trying to obtain a victory.
So when I'm watching Shohei Ohtani, I am looking at a representative of a diaspora I proudly belong to - and this is despite being a die-hard St. Louis Cardinals fan since birth, which dictates I should not love an Angels player as much as I love Ohtani. Based in Los Angeles. Its starting pitching staff has an ERA of 5.83, a WHIP of 1.39 and a strikeouts-per-nine of 8.0.

The self-destructing messaging app has even tried to monetize its lenses to boost revenue from the advertisers. However, no one, not even Apple's employees have access to the mathematical data obtained by the camera.
The Athletics just couldn't pull through against a superb pitching effort, losing the series 2-1 in Anaheim. Since the A's won on Saturday, 7-3, this game also falls into my Major League Baseball bounceback strategy, too. The Angels have won four out of their last five games, with 31 wins during those times.
Gossett was pulled after five runs in 3 1/3 innings.
The Angels' offense has been led by Justin Upton and Shohei Ohtani.
Ohtani has tossed 75 pitches, recording 11 strikeouts in his six frames. The bullpen has an ERA of 2.97, along with a WHIP of 1.17. Those runs were all he allowed, and he went on to complete six innings with six strikeouts.
"I hadn't really given a whole lot of thought to how long it had been since I was in a real game, because you get through an entire spring training and kind of feel like you get your legs back under you", Triggs told MLB.com.
The Athletics went 7-12 SU against the Angels last season.
