The last few years have seen Mike Trout’s name in the headlines very often but not for reasons he, Angels fans, or baseball fans in general, would have preferred. The three-time MVP has been riddled with injuries in his 30s, so headlines like “Mike Trout Back on the Injured List” have been prevalent.
However, on Thursday, Trout made headlines with what he did at the plate as he made MLB history. The Los Angeles Angels were completing a four-game series at the New York Yankees on Thursday afternoon, and Trout homered. He did the same thing in Wednesday’s game, and in Tuesday’s game, and twice in Monday’s game. Thus, he cracked five homers over the four-game series and became the first visiting player to hit dingers in four straight days at Yankee Stadium.
