Overview
- Trout capped the four-game set with a 446-foot, seventh-inning homer off Angel Chivilli that Thursday put the Angels ahead in an 11-4 win.
- He became the first visiting player to homer in four straight days at the current Yankee Stadium, which opened in 2009.
- MLB research places him with Jimmie Foxx, Darrell Evans and George Bell as the only players to hit five homers in a series against the Yankees.
- Yankees star Aaron Judge also hit four home runs in the series, framing the week as a rare power duel between MVPs.
- Early metrics show Trout’s OPS back above 1.000 with fewer strikeouts, and coaches credit better health and a steadier routine while noting durability remains the key test.
