The Cleveland Indians and Los Angeles Angels met for game 1 of their weekend series in Cleveland, in front of sold out Progressive Field. Unfortunately for Indians fans they left disappointed as the Angels used a big night from rookie Shohei Ohtani to go home with a 7-4 victory. The Angels got things started in the first jumping out to a 2-0 lead, but Cleveland battled back in the bottom half of the inning.
The Indians would take their only lead of the night in the second inning when the new guy Leonys Martin hit a single against the shift, scoring Yan Gomes. Gomes would be removed from the game after the inning for discomfort behind his right knee. Ohtani hit his second homer of the game to tie things up in the top of the third inning, this would be it for scoring for a few innings, that is until the 8th inning.
Here are three takeaways from the Indians 7-4 loss to the Angels…
