Ohtani, backed by Ward’s slam, leads Angels past Tigers 7-5

Shohei Ohtani hadn’t pitched in front of a full, rowdy crowd at Angel Stadium since he was a major league rookie three years ago, and he had missed the feeling. With 30,709 fans cheering them on, Ohtani and the Angels rode that wave of energy to yet another win. Ohtani yielded five hits and a run over six strong innings, and Taylor Ward hit his first career grand slam in Los Angeles’ 7-5 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Thursday night.
