Also, in the back of the 7th inning of this game, there was a rare scene in which Guardians manager Francona and Angels acting manager Nevin argued violently with the ball umpire one after another in the scene of 2 outs, 1st base and 2nd base, and were sent off.

Ohtani's next pitching will be on the 18th Japan time, 21 innings left

Otani scored his 12th win against the Astros on the 10th, but he left the mound with one goal in the fifth inning due to a blister on his right middle finger.



Regarding Mame, Angels' acting manager Nevin indicated that after the game on the 10th, it would not affect the next starter schedule, but before the game on the 12th, he mentioned it again, and Otani was on the 6th as planned. On the 17th, it was revealed that he would pitch against the Mariners on the 18th, Japan time.

After that, he said, "He hopes to throw four more times," and indicated that after the next pitch, he would shorten the interval and pitch for three more games with a five-day middle.



According to this schedule, Ohtani will pitch against the Twins on the 23rd, against the Athletics on the 29th, and on the 5th of next month, the final game of the season.

Otani has 21 more innings to reach the 162nd inning, and if he pitches in 4 games as planned, he will reach the regulated inning if he throws an average of 5 innings and 1/3 inning or more per game.



Otani has already reached the regular at-bat, and if he reaches the regular at-bat and regular pitching innings in the same season, it will be the first feat in history since 1901 when the two-league system began in the major leagues.
