Ohtani's next start on the mound will come Sunday against the Royals, Maria Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Both of Ohtani's previous two turns have fallen on Sundays, with his last outing representing arguably the top performance by a pitcher this season. Ohtani carried a perfect game into the seventh inning of the Angels' victory over the Athletics, striking out 12 batters along the way. The rookie will draw a favorable matchup in his upcoming appearance, as the Royals rank 29th in the league in runs scored with 26 over eight games.
