I mean I'd argue it was longer than it needed to be last night as all 7 ERs were attributed to him. Maddon tried his best to get him out of the inning cause Ohtani has struggled early and they know he can pick it up.

Also, taking him out made them have to pinch hit a pitcher the rest of the long game so maddon tried to wait.

BUT LOL WTF....The Angels came back to win that game with a 7 inning ninth after 3 hours of delay and hammered Chapman for a Grand Slam to close the night.

i was looking fwd to see Ohtani back in the lineup after that -- but the game has already been rain postponed.
