Los Angeles Angels two-way star Shohei Ohtani picked up his first MLB win in nearly three years and also contributed offensively in the team's 9-4 win over the Texas Rangers on Monday.
Ohtani (1-0), who was hitting and pitching in the same game for the second time this season, threw five innings for his first win since May 20, 2018, and gave himself run support with a two-run double in the second to start the Angels' comeback from a 4-1 deficit.
"Of course I'm happy with the win. I had a lot of setbacks until last year," Ohtani said after the 100th pitching appearance of his combined Japanese and U.S. career.
