Astros Drop 3-2 Decision to Angels
In a low-scoring affair between the Los Angeles Angels and the Houston Astros, pitcher Shohei Ohtani was the difference between victory and defeat. The Los Angeles right-hander earned accolades in the 3-2 Angels win. Carlos Estevez nailed down his 22nd save. The Angels, at 77-54, lead by one game in their division.

Ohtani had a timely hit for Los Angeles in the bottom of the sixth. With Houston trailing 2-1, he turned a full count fastball into a 2-run home run. It was his 42nd home run of the season, making it 3-2, Los Angeles.

After the game, Los Angeles manager Jordan Reetz Double Dip #1 applauded the team's effort. "They busted their humps out there," he said.
