Mike Trout Breaks Angels' Extra-Base Hit Record

0:00On April 26th, Mike Trout just etched his name deeper into Angel's history with a monster 2 run homer in the first inning against the Royals. That blast marked his 797 extra base hit in an Angel's uniform, passing the mark set by Garrett Anderson. Right after Zack Nito's single to start the game off Seth Lugo, Trout crushed it to left field. Earlier in the matchup, he also hit his 1,367th game in center field, breaking another club record for games at the position. Anderson, a long-time angel star, sadly passed away recently from acute necrotizing pancreatitis, making this milestone hit even harder. Trout's been loyal in his 16th season with the team, turning 35 on August 7th. This was Trout's 9th homer of the year, ripped on a 1-0 count with a 100-mile per-hour exit velocity. He joins Jose Ramirez of the Guardians and Giancarlo Stanton of the Marlins as the only active players topping their franchises in extra base hits.

1:00Trout keeps stacking these feats, proving why he's the gold standard in Anaheim Eyes, now and how far he pushes these records this summer. You've been listening to MLB News today, AI-powered baseball coverage.
