Cole Irvin visits Shohei Ohtani when A’s beats Angels



Ramón Laureano slammed a fiery pit terrorist with a three-run home run to give the A’s lead in their 4-1 win over Los Angeles Angels on Monday night.


Running home came out of the downfall of angels Steve Cishek. With Shohei Ohtani on the hill, the A's need to get to the Los Angeles wound to get through. With a toss change, Ohtani moved to the left corner to keep his bat on the list - he had a preconceived notion of his pointless effort disappearing when Laureano's ball landed on the left field seats.

An aspiring crowd of 14,000 flocked to the Oakland Coliseum on a cold Monday night to watch the two-dimensional star Ohtani and hit second against Oakland A’s. The show has turned into a fierce battle between Ohtani and A's starter Cole Irvin.


Monday's game was pointless in the first seven innings. Ohtani hit six without a goal, holding Oakland three times in eight strikes. That includes two pairs from Mitch Moreland and Mark Canha - the latter creating an A-scoring threat to Ohtani and Tony Kemp, a pedestrian, in third place with less than two ads. But Ohtani hit Elvis Andrus and Matt Olson hitting the ball in the switch to end the threat. Ohtani went six innings without goals


Cole Irvin stole Ohtani's system, likening her to an inning with a small pitch. He softened the Angels' stumbling block, with the exception of David Fletcher - who came three times against him in a double leadoff, unmarried and on the move. That gave Ohtani three chances to score - all three chances denied.


Ohtani's only strike in the game was twice as Fletcher tried to score from the start. But Laureno has found a man who cut Elvis Andrus, who linked detective Sean Murphy to get Fletcher out of the house. The angels challenged the phone at home, possibly arguing that Murphy's foot had closed the plate, but the phone had stopped.


After Fletcher left, Irvin rode Ohtani to three stadiums, slapping him. Irvin left the game after stopping to lead the leadoff in the eighth inning in Brandon Marsh, but Lou Trivino threw the ball around the corner to get Ohtani to run the runner.


Irvin finished with seven innings and kept all seven hits that allowed him to fall home. Trivino collected three out of the eighth and came back out in the ninth, where he allowed himself to run into Marsh twice down the third line, beating Phil Gosselin from the first base.


Matt Olson's monthly death in the eighth majority gave some A's insurance. His 24 year home run.
