Shohei Ohtani singled and scored twice on Sunday as the Los Angeles Angels prevented a three-game sweep with a 14-5 win over the Houston Astros in the series finale.

With the Angels trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the second inning at Angel Stadium, Ohtani drew a leadoff walk from Houston left-hander Lance McCullers Jr. (10-5) and came around to score the game-tying run on Ian Kinsler's double to deep left.

The 24-year-old Japanese lined out and grounded into a force out in his next at-bats. But in the seventh, he singled and was driven home along with Kinsler on David Fletcher's single after Astros reliever Will Harris loaded the bases.

"I did relatively well. I drew a walk and had decent at-bats. The lineup overall had a good flow, and I was able to get into it," said Ohtani, who batted fifth as the Angels' designated hitter.

Andrew Heaney (6-6) held the Astros to a run over six innings for the win, while Justin Upton, Kole Calhoun, Mike Trout and Kinsler all homered for the Angels.

Among other Japanese, Masahiro Tanaka's next start was delayed as the Subway Series finale between the New York Yankees and New York Mets was postponed until next month due to rain.

The 29-year-old right-hander, who is 7-2 in 15 games with a 4.54 ERA, is now scheduled to make his next start on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Rays.

At Citizens Bank Park, San Diego Padres' submarine right-hander Kazuhisa Makita was called up from the minors to be the 26th man for the second game of a doubleheader against the Philadelphia Phillies, but did not play.

The Padres lost 5-0 after beating the Phillies 10-2 in the first game.

Earlier this month, Makita had been sent down to Triple-A El Paso for the fourth time in his major league debut season. He is 0-1 in 23 games with a 7.09 ERA.
