Corey Kluber tries to quiet the bat of Shohei Ohtani

At least Mike Trout is still not in the lineup

By Tyler Griffith
MLB: Cleveland Indians at Detroit Tigers Tim Fuller-USA TODAY Sports

Shohei Ohtani, in his young MLB career, currently has a slash line of .643/.643/1.500 against the Cleveland Indians. And yes, that stat line is made up of a grand total of 14 plate appearances, but Ohtani has made them count when facing Cleveland pitching. Corey Kluber will try and introduce a little regression to the mean today as he takes the mound for the first time in the month of August.
