But Ohtani DHs this game and is scheduled to pitch next game . He goes 2/3 2 doubles one rbi and a walk . I warn manager Mike that he’s going to be tired from all that running when he pitches in our game 3 . Game 3 Ohtani goes against Juggs ace Carasco. Here we go folks top of first M.

That’s it manager Mike says and pulls Ohtani. Ohtani one inning pitched 6 hits 6 ER 1HR 1BB . Berrios wahoos number 4 starter comes in for relief. Pitches 6 innings and gives up 6 more runs . At the end of the top of 5th inning Juggs lead 12-0 . Bottom of 5th carasco has bad inning allows 4 runs Aguilar 2 run triple after altuve HBP and Arenado two run homer . 12-4 Juggs . Bottom of 7th wahoos add two more Arenado another 2 run homer . Juggs 12-6 what the heck is going on . Bottom of 8th carasco gives up lead off double to Markakis and that’s it he is pulled .
