- It's easy to get overshadowed in a lineup that includes Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani, but Taylor Ward is beginning to garner some attention as well.
On a night when Ohtani showed off his two-way prowess and Trout added a pair of RBI doubles in extending his hitting streak to 10 games, Ward's pursuit of the Angels' first cycle since 2019 was the only thing in doubt in the late innings.
Ward missed the first eight games of the season due to a right groin strain, but is batting .395 since returning to the lineup. He has three home runs in the series, including the first multi-homer game of his career on Monday. The Guardians dropped their sixth straight despite José Ramírez's two home runs. The All-Star third baseman had two-run shots in the first and eighth innings.
"Fortunately, everyone around me is hitting the ball really well, so it is good to jump in there and contribute to the victory," Ohtani said through an interpreter.
