Ohtani home-runs lift Angels past Indians

Cleveland: Shohei Ohtani had four hits, including two homers, and David Fletcher’s RBI double in the eighth inning snapped a 3-3 tie to help Los Angeles win at Cleveland.

The victory not only ended a four-game Angels losing streak but also snapped a 10-game losing streak to the Indians at Progressive Field, dating to September of 2014. The Angels were without centre fielder Mike Trout for the second game in a row because of a right wrist contusion.

Batting third for the first time in his career, Ohtani had his first career four-hit game in the majors, including his first two home runs away from Angel Stadium. He also singled twice, scored three runs and stole a base.
