Ohtani suffered his second loss of the season, allowing a third inning grand slam to Rangers catcher Jonah Heim in the third inning as the Angels failed to respond to a 10-run outburst from Texas.
Despite a quick start from the Los Angeles Angels, thanks in large part to a monstrous solo blast from Mike Trout in the first inning, the Texas Rangers took advantage of a poor performance from reigning MVP Shohei Ohtani on their way to a 10-5 victory.
However, the Rangers would answer back in the second inning with a grand slam off the bat of catcher Jonah Heim, who took advantage of the pair of hits and base on balls allowed by Ohtani. Heim's homer came when he smashed a hanging splitter 391 feet to right field. With Brian Moran on the mound for a lefty-versus-lefty matchup against newly-acquired Corey Seager, the Rangers would tack on two more when he blasted a 401 foot, two-run homer deep to right field, for the 6-2 lead.
Again in the fifth, the Rangers would add two more insurance runs, all but securing their second win of the season.
