Shohei Ohtani of the Major League Baseball Angels started from the bench in the athletics game on the 23rd.

This is the third time Otani has been removed from the starting lineup this season, but the two games so far have been the games of the next day when he played at the same time by pitching, and this is the first time this season except the day after he pitched.



Angels coach Maddon revealed at a press conference before the match that he considered that the starting pitcher of the opponent team on that day was the left pitcher and that the 24th of the next day was a rest day. I removed it from the starting lineup because I wanted to. If the starting lineup of the opponent was a right pitcher, I think I would have included it in the lineup.
