In the same match the day before, Ohtani was silent with no hits and two strikeouts in three at bats in front of right-hander Max Scherzer, who represents the majors. The Angels also lost 0-12 and are forced to struggle in August.
Shohei Otani, No. 1 “destructive power” US impact “best ever”
Major debut in 2017 with Ya Army
The opponent’s starting pitcher, Jordan Montgomery, is a 30-year-old left arm who entered the New York Yankees in the 2014 draft and made his major debut in 2017. He was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals late last year and joined the Rangers at the end of the trade deadline this season.
Ohtani’s monthly batting average is .289 in August, which is not bad, but he will not be as active as he was in June and July, when he won the monthly MVP for two consecutive months with two homers and three RBIs in 13 games. In the American League, the home run ranking is leading the league, but in the majors as a whole, Atlanta Braves’ Matt Olson is on the verge of mass production, and is facing a critical moment to become the home run king of the entire MLB.
As the season unfolds towards the end of the season, Otani is worried regarding the effects of fatigue. Can he hit No. 42 for the first time in two games and show signs of recovery?
◆Matt Olson has overtaken Shohei Otani in home runs. His strength is that he has played 95% of the season in the past 6 years.
