ANAHEIM, California – Shohei Ohtani hit his 16th home run as the Los Angeles Angels came from behind to win 7-4 Tuesday against compatriot Seiya Suzuki’s Chicago Cubs.
Trailing 4-0 in the fourth inning, Ohtani lined a pitch off Hayden Wesneski that Suzuki just missed catching in right. Originally ruled a triple, the play was reviewed and ruled to have struck above Angel Stadium’s yellow home run line.
The Angels two-way star batted second as the designated hitter and went 1-for-2 while drawing two walks. He scored the go-ahead run in the Angels’ five-run fifth on a Matt Thaiss two-run single. Suzuki went 1-for-4 with a walk and a run for the Cubs.
