    The hits weren’t even on bad pitches.

    But every pitch looks awful when the batters know to sit on it.

    Pros: Javier has 7 strikeouts through 2.1

    Cons: every ball hit in play is a hit.

    edit: followed by a 4 pitch walk on 4 fastballs at the same spot.

    Ohtani singlehandedly winning games for the Angels is something else.

    Yeah- but it wasn’t like they are killing the ball. One off the glove, another between two fielders on the move with a guy running, a perfect bunt and then Ohtani hit one hard.
    More **** luck on the babip than Javier issues. The walks to **** hitters are on him.

    Let this be one of those Angels headlines that Ohtani pitches 6 or 7 scoreless innings, has multiple RBI, and the Angels lose.

    All of the hits were 95+ off the bat.
    KC realized trying to lift Javiers super rising fastball is a one-way ticket to pop-up city. They’d rather take their chances hitting screaming grounders.

    Just a Reminder:

    Angels highlights are like:

    Mike Trout hit three home-runs and raised his batting average to .528 while Shohei Ohtani did something that hasn't been done since 'Tungsten Arm' O'Doyle of the 1921 Akron Groomsmen.... as the Tigers beat the Angels 8-3

    To add, he’s now compared to Babe Ruth’s 19-21 seasons.

    Angels still suck and always will with the culture they have.

    JJ not looking nice falling for the same cutter in twice.

    Make that 3 times, third one a curveball.
