Angels coach Maddon revealed on the 16th that Shohei Ohtani (27) will avoid the next pitching scheduled for the Athletics match on the 17th. He explained the reason, “I complained of pain in my right arm with the catch ball the day before.” The US magazine Sporting News and others reported. He says he has no plans to see him at the hospital because of his accumulated fatigue.
The next pitching is undecided, and he said, “If the pain continues, he may not be able to see his pitch,” he said, suggesting that this season as a pitcher may end as it is.
This season, Otani has 9 wins and 2 losses as a pitcher and an ERA of 3.36. “Double-digit wins & double-digit home runs” are expected for the first time in 103 years, but the commander said, “’10 (win)’ always looks better than’ 9′, but that doesn’t motivate the go-ahead.” He stated that he would not overdo it for one more win.
However, even if this season as a pitcher ends, he will continue to play as a designated hitter. Otani is currently in second place in the league with 44 home runs in Thailand. The Blue Jays’ Guerrero had no match that day and his 45 home runs remained the same, but the Royals’ Perez hit No. 45 to take the lead, and the King battle is still three-fold.
