7 articles · Updated · Fox News · May 6
  • In Houston on Tuesday, Altuve chased a 1-2 sweeper so far outside it would have hit a left-handed batter, striking out with runners on the corners.
  • Altuve went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts, but the Astros beat the Dodgers 2-1 as Ohtani fanned eight over seven innings and allowed two solo homers.
  • The defeat was Ohtani's third straight losing start, and another loss on Wednesday would hand Los Angeles a third consecutive series defeat.

With a historic ERA but limited innings, can Ohtani finally capture the elusive Cy Young Award this season?
