Angels notes: Shohei Ohtani, Andrew Heaney, Justin Upton

Catching up on some Angels news, with a few of the usual suspects of late.

First up is Shohei Ohtani, who hit a 470-foot home run on Tuesday night against the Royals, the longest of his career.

Ohtani is tied for third in the majors with his 17 home runs, trailing only a pair of juniors — Ronald Acuña Jr. and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

It’s been an eventful week for Ohtani, who struck out 10 in six innings last Friday. He was 0-for-2 with a walk at the plate in that game, but his four games since has two home runs and two other games with three walks and a stolen base.
