A blockbuster pitching matchup in the American League will open today's MLB schedule, with Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Angels facing off with Alek Manoah and the Toronto Blue Jays.
In last night's series opener, the Angels jumped out in front with a five-run second inning and rolled to a 12-0 win. The rout ended the Angels' six-game losing streak, and it was just their second win in their last ten games.
Ohtani the hitter contributed to the skid-stopping win with a two-run triple in that five-run second frame, and today he will be looking to pick up his 11th wi n of the season as a pitcher.
On the other side, Manoah will be seeking his 13th win of the season as the Blue Jays push to keep pace in the highly competitive AL wild-card race.
