Shohei Ohtani hits 40th homer after leaving mound early with cramps in Seattle's 5-3 win over Angels -
Ohtani said he wasn’t sure whether the cramping, which was largely in his right middle finger, would force him to miss a mound start. Ohtani also had problems with cramps during the Angels’ just-completed trip, leaving consecutive games early with lower-body cramping.
“I was just thinking about getting on top of something, hitting a hard line drive,” Marlowe said. “Swung through the first two at the top, and finally got on top of one, the last one.” “I wish I could have gone close to 100 pitches and save the bullpen, help them out,” said Ohtani, who joined Mike Trout and Troy Glaus as the only players in Angels history with multiple 40-homer seasons. “But a loss is a loss. It happens. Just got to turn the page.”
Estévez walked two and gave up a single before Marlowe’s blast in his first blown save for the Angels in 24 opportunities this season.
