Jared Walsh singled home Shohei Ohtani with two outs in the ninth to lift the Los Angeles Angels to an 8-7 win against the visiting Baltimore Orioles in the opener of their three-game series on Friday night.
Earlier, Ohtani homered twice to give him a major league-leading 30 on the season, the most in franchise history before the All-Star break.
With one out in the ninth, the Orioles brought in left-hander Paul Fry (2-3) and he walked Ohtani on five pitches. Ohtani stole second with two outs and scored on a close play at the plate after a line-drive single to right by Walsh.
