Trailing by one run with the bases empty, the Angels were one out away from being swept by the Red Sox. Mike Trout singled, extending hope and putting the tying run on first base.
Shohei Ohtani stepped up to the plate, representing the go-ahead run. Before we could even think about him potentially doing something magical, he swung at the first pitch and gave the Angels the lead, and ultimately the 6-5 victory.
Ohtani crushed his 12th home run of the season, tied for the lead in the majors.
