The LA Angels have stumbled a bit out of the gate, losing their first two games of the season at home. On Opening Day, Shohei Ohtani delivered a brilliant outing, striking out nine but the Angels bats could not come alive, scoring only one run.

Friday night saw the Angels lineup put up six runs but the pitching staff gave up an abismal 13 runs in a blowout loss. The team will look to rebound in their game this Sunday with starting pitcher Jose Suarez on the mound.
