On a near-nightly basis, Angels two-way star Shohei Ohtani does something remarkable. His historic feats have become so commonplace—as has his team’s ineptitude—that the two events happening on the same night have been meme-ified forever as “Tungsten Arm O’Doyle.”
So it’s no surprise that Ohtani found another creative way to help the Angels in a losing effort against the last-place A’s on Monday night—though not exactly in a way you might expect.
Angels starting pitcher Jose Suarez had a rough time navigating the Oakland lineup, surrendering seven runs and five homers through the game’s first three innings to put his team in an early 7-1 deficit. A key factor that likely led to the A’s having so much success offensively? Suarez seemed to be tipping his pitches.
