ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Shohei Ohtani threw a baseball 101 mph in the top of the first, then hit a baseball 115 mph a half-inning later, a stirring start to a historic Sunday night for the Los Angeles Angels' two-way sensation.
Ohtani, pitching and hitting in the same game for the first time in his career, retired three of the first four Chicago White Sox batters he faced in the top half of the first inning, throwing three pitches in the triple digits -- including a 101 mph fastball to Adam Eaton, which was followed by a nasty splitter in the dirt to record a strikeout.
