Los Angeles Angels rookie Shohei Ohtani gave up six runs in a shaky three-inning start Friday in a "B" game against the Mexican League's Tijuana Toros.
Ohtani, 23, was scheduled for 60 pitches in four innings, but he reached 64 pitches after only three. He allowed five hits, struck out six and walked one.
In three starts this spring, Ohtani has totaled 16 strikeouts but allowed 10 runs in parts of six innings.
"I felt like I made a lot of good pitches and quite a few bad ones," Ohtani said through his interpreter, according to the Orange County Register.
