Impact The five walks allowed matched a season high for Ohtani, who needed 97 pitches (53 strikes) to get through the five-inning start. He was at least able to help his own cause with a third-inning homer while coming up a triple shy of the cycle. Ohtani's given up three homers and eight runs over his last 11 innings, and he's gone four starts without a win. He's at a 3.43 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 102:34 K:BB through 76 innings this season. The two-way star is also slashing .282/.356/.563 with 17 homers, 44 RBI, nine stolen bases and 38 runs scored over 63 contests. His next pitching start is projected to be at Texas next week.
