April 3 (UPI) -- Superstar teammates Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani each hit their first home runs of the season on consecutive pitches as part of a dominant Los Angeles Angels victory over the Oakland Athletics.
The blasts -- which totaled nearly 900 feet -- came in the top of the fifth inning of the Angels' 6-0 win Sunday at RingCentral Coliseum in Oakland, Calif. Trout and Ohtani have hit back-to-back homers five times during their Angels tenure.
"It was a good time," Trout said on the Bally Sports broadcast. "We need to do more of that. Having Shohei behind me, anything could happen.
"It was a fun series and we gotta take it to Seattle."
