Los Angeles Angels rookie Shohei Ohtani hit his third homer of the season Friday night in his first at-bat against the Oakland Athletics.
The two-way star from Japan crushed a 93 mph, two-seam fastball from A's starter Daniel Gossett to left-center, a 449-foot solo shot onto the fake rocks up by the camera well.
"Smoked that ball, huh?'' Angels shortstop Andrelton Simmons said. "The center fielder ran after it like he had a chance for a second, scared everybody. Wasn't even close.''
It marked Ohtani's third straight game with a home run, which the Angels won 13-9.
