Young pitcher Reid Detmers and the Los Angeles Angels are holding on to the top spot in the American League West. They have a record of 21-11 thanks to some superior performances up and down their lineup. Mike Trout recently hit his 161st home run at Angel Stadium, setting the record for Angels players at their home stadium. Shohei Ohtani also hit his first career grand slam against the Tampa Bay Rays earlier this week.Although Shohei Ohtani may be the jewel of the LA Angels pitching rotation, they are gaining stability up and down the rotation.
