Participated in the game against the Astros as the “No. 3 designated hitter”

Astros-Angels (Japan time 2nd, Houston)

Pitcher Shohei Otani of the Angels will start on the 1st (Japan time 2nd, the game starts at 9:10) against the Astros as the “3rd designated hitter”. Expectations are high for him in No. 16, which will be the first three games in a row this season.

In the match against the White Sox on May 31, the day before (the same day), he fired two shots in one game for the first time this season. The second is a super-large No. 15 2-run that flies 459 feet to his right wing. Outfielder Mike Trout also hit No. 13 of 461 feet (about 140.5 meters) for the first time, making it the 27th Abek Arch in total. So far this season, they have won 5 out of 5 games. In addition, No. 15 ranked second in the American League alone. He was three behind Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge’s 18.

The Angels will start pitcher Reed Detmers. This season, he has started 9 games, has 0 wins and 4 losses, and has an ERA of 4.93, so far no wins. Will it be your first victory?
