Mike Trout hits his first home run of the season, signs for things to come

Mike Trout has had a slow start to the season. He's 3-for-21 on the year, but the home run on Wednesday against the Cardinals should lift his confidence as the three-time AL MVP looks to brush off his early-season struggles.

“It’s getting close,” Trout said. “It’s good to see. Put some good swings on balls, barreled some balls.”

For the 2025 season, Trout left the center field position for corner outfield and designated hitter assignment in a bid to stay healthy for the 2025 season. That comes after Trout only played 266 of 648 games between 2021-24.

Talking about his new defensive position in the field, Trout said:

"I'm actually enjoying it a lot,” Trout told MLB.com's Rhett Bollinger earlier this spring. “During pitching changes, when I go to center field, it’s like ‘Man, this is bigger than I thought it was.’

"There’s a lot of room out there. But I think just getting the reps and just getting more comfortable, with angles and stuff, and working with the coaches, I think it's been great.”

The Angels did considerably well despite Mike Trout struggling. If the perennial All-Star finds consistency at the plate, expect them to continue doing well.
