Special to The Detroit News
Anaheim, Calif. — Wily Peralta found out for himself on Saturday night just how hard Shohei Ohtani can hit the baseball.
Peralta made his first MLB start in more than four years and became the third pitcher for the Detroit Tigers to give up a home run to Ohtani in the series.
Ohtani didn't cause the only damage for the Los Angeles Angels in the 8-3 win, their third straight in the four-game series, but the Japanese two-way star turned up the volume once again at Angel Stadium.
Peralta gave up another two-run homer in the third inning before forging through five innings, a big relief effort for the Detroit bullpen.
