Anaheim, California – Shohei Ohtani homered for the third straight game and went 3-for-4 with two RBIs in the Los Angeles Angels’ 4-3 walk-off win in 10 innings over the New York Yankees on Monday.
The two-way star extended his major league-leading home run total to 35 with a two-run shot to center that tied the game 3-3 in the seventh inning. Michael Stefanic lined a walk-off single to left field, scoring Chad Wallach from second base.
Ohtani connected on a 1-2 fastball from Michael King and gave his bat a healthy flip as he began rounding the bases at Angel Stadium. The Japanese player does not usually celebrate in such a zealous manner, and it drew a reaction from Angels manager Phil Nevin.
