Angels’ two way star Shohei Ohtani had his second start of the spring this morning in a “B” game against the Brewers. A “B” game is a common occurrence in the spring as teams split up their rosters and play two games in one day in order to get more players more opportunities. Ohtani was brilliant in his 2 and 2/3 innings. All eight outs he recorded were via the strikeout as he faced 12 batters total and threw 52 pitches. His fastball was in the upper 90s and he had much better command of his secondary stuff then in his first outing. While it is still a small sample size, Ohtani has proved he has dominant stuff and this last appearance shown great improvement as he is adjusting to the MLB. It looks like he’s going to figure it out real soon, and hitters should be on notice.
