• Angels end losing streak behind strong outing from Shohei Ohtani

  20-05-2018 18:27 via ocregister.com
  
  ANAHEIM — Shohei Ohtani and some good situational hitting snapped the Angels’ losing streak.
  Ohtani pitched 7-2/3 innings in the Angels’ 5-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday, ending a five-game losing streak that was mostly the result of an anemic offense.
  The Angels still didn’t hit much, managing just four hits, but they took advantage of seven walks and they scored four runs on outs. That provided enough cushion for Ohtani, who gave up two runs in the longest
