Shohei Ohtani of the Major League Baseball Angels, who had avoided the starting pitch because he felt tension in his right arm, will be on the 20th of Japan time.
If Otani becomes the winning pitcher in this game, he will achieve the "double-digit win, double-digit home run" for the first time in 103 years since Babe Ruth.
The Angels announced on the 18th that Otani's next starting pitch will be the athletics match in Anaheim, Japan time on the 20th.
Otani was originally scheduled to start in the athletics game on the 18th, but he avoided it because he felt tension in his right arm when he played catch before the game on the 16th.
"I think it was due to tiredness at the end of the season," said Angels coach Maddon, who threw 32 balls in the bullpen before the match on the 18th while coach Wise was watching.
Of these, 24 are changing pitches, and some people were able to check the tablet device between pitches.
The Angels announced on the 17th that Barrier pitcher will start pitching on the 20th, and Otani was expected to pitch after the 21st, but it seems that he changed the rotation after seeing the condition on the 18th.
If Otani wins on the 20th and becomes a pitcher, he will achieve the "double-digit win, double-digit home run" for the first time in 103 years since Babe Ruth, who is said to be the "god of baseball."
