Los Angeles enters this series with a 45-44 record, which is good for fourth in the division. The Angels won eight of their last 12 games before the All-Star break and playing some of their best ball of the season.
The Angels are led by American League MVP favorite Shohei Ohtani who has a .364 on-base percentage, 33 home runs, 70 RBI batting, and a 4-1 record, and a 3.49 ERA on the mound. As a team, Los Angeles ranked eighth, averaging 4.9 runs per game, and fourth with a .257 batting average and 123 home runs.
I'm taking the better offensive team here at home to get the win on Friday night.
