Shohei Ohtani - Clubs 41st homerOhtani went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and two walks in Thursday's loss to the Orioles.

ImpactOhtani led off the game with a solo shot to right field, but that was the lone offensive highlight for Los Angeles in the 13-1 loss to the squad with MLB's worst record. The long ball snapped his six-game homerless streak, during which he struck out 10 times in 21 at-bats. Despite the Angels' disappointing season, Ohtani has cemented his name as one of the league's brightest stars, leading all of baseball with 41 homers while emerging as a bona fide ace on the mound.

Elvis Peguero - Struggles in big-league debutPeguero (0-1) took the loss against Baltimore on Thursday, pitching two-thirds of an inning and allowing five runs on two hits and three walks.

ImpactThe right-hander received his first call-up to the majors Wednesday and made his debut Thursday. The outing did not go well, as Peguero threw only 16 of 31 pitches for strikes and issued three free passes. All five batters he allowed to reach base eventually came around to score, including three who crossed the plate after his departure. Peguero has been solid in the minors this season but may not stick around with the big club for long, especially if he's unable to consistently throw strikes.

For the year, he's slashing .235/.302/.379 with 10 long balls, 36 RBI, 27 runs scored and 12 doubles in 325 plate appearances.
