ARLINGTON, Texas—Shohei Ohtani pitched six innings for his first victory in five starts and matched the MLB lead with his 22nd homer as the Los Angeles Angels beat the AL West-leading Texas Rangers 5–3 on Thursday night, June 15.
Ohtani (6–2) had already thrown the last of his 99 pitches before Mickey Moniak’s tying homer leading off the top of the seventh against Nathan Eovaldi (9–3), who lost in his bid to become only the second 10-game winner in the majors this season.
