While the Los Angeles Angels are doing everything possible to be competitive in the AL West, long-time superstar Mike Trout is seemingly turning back the clock in his recent stretch of games to help them do it. On Wednesday, Trout hit yet another home run against the New York Yankees .

The 34-year-old outfielder hit his f ourth home run in three games in the top of the fifth inning during Wednesday's contest against the Yankees. Trout blasted a four-seam fastball off Luis Gil to right field to record a two-run homer, giving the Angels a 4-3 lead through five innings.
That home run ties Trout in third with the most home runs in MLB this season. Although he only owns a .222 batting average entering Wednesday's matchup, the 16-year veteran is putting up some serious numbers for the Angels right now. Before the start of this game, Trout was leading the AL in runs with 17 while recording 14 hits and 13 RBIs with a .388 OBP.
The Angels will hope for Mike Trout to keep this pace up for as long as possible. For now, the club is focusing on potentially taking a 2-1 lead over the Yankees in their four-game series. If Trout keeps going yard, then Los Angeles very well could pull off that feat, and perhaps take the series with a win on Thursday.

L.A. has been surprisingly competitive to begin the 2026 season. While the club is .500 right now with a 9-9 record, the Angels have a real chance at remaining in the mix of the AL West. That's especially true if Trout somehow hits a home run every game.
