Can the LA Angels ever ascend to the top of the standings with arguably two of the three best baseball players on their roster? The time may be growing short with one of those superstars, Shohei Ohtani, scheduled for free agency at the end of this season. Coming into this series, the Angels dropped four out of five games including two out of three to the Guardians over the weekend. On Monday, in game one of this series, Ohtani did it all going seven innings with five strikeouts while also going 4-for-5 from the plate and a double short of the cycle in a 9-5 Angels' win.
