The second half of the season began on the 16th of the Major League Baseball, and Shohei Ohtani of the Angels made a full appearance in the Mariners game as a designated hitter, hitting a two-point timely hit that narrowed the gap by one point in the ninth inning.
Otani, who has hit 33 home runs so far this season and is in the lead in both leagues, was the second designated hitter in the Mariners game in Anaheim, California on the 16th in the first game of the second half of the season. I started in the starting lineup.
The first turn at bat was a left fly because it was jammed with a cut ball with a high in-course, and the second turn at bat was a right fly with the first ball launched in the scene of 1 out and 2nd base in the 3rd inning.
After that, in the 6th inning at bat, he struck out on a changing ball with a lower out course, and in the 8th inning, he struck out on a fastball over 150km.
Even so, the 5th at-bat in the 9th inning, which was greeted 2 to 6, returned 1 point, and with the chance of 2 outs, 2nd and 3rd bases, the changing ball of the out course was repelled in front of the center, and it became a timely hit to return two runners, 1 I got close to the point difference.
With a batter hit, Otani advanced to third base, but the following batter was beaten and the Angels lost 5-6.
Otani's batting average dropped to 20%, 7 minutes and 8 RBIs with 1 hit and 2 RBIs in 5 at bats in this game, but with the RBIs raised that day, he increased the total RBI for this season to "72" and 2 in the American League. I lined up with the top players.
