Trout's Two Homers Power Angels to Victory! Must-See Highlights!
Trout's Power Surge Leads Angels to Thrilling Win Over Rangers
ANAHEIM, Calif. – Mike Trout delivered a spectacular performance Wednesday night, launching two home runs to propel the Los Angeles Angels to an 11-8 victory over the Texas Rangers. The Angels' offense exploded, overcoming an early deficit to secure the win in a high-scoring affair.
Jorge Soler's tiebreaking two-run homer in the eighth inning sealed the deal, but it was Trout's electrifying display that ignited the crowd. He blasted a two-run shot in the third inning off Rangers starter Kumar Rocker and followed it up with a solo homer in the fifth, giving the Angels a 6-5 lead. These were his 15th and 16th home runs of the season.
"It's always great to contribute to a win," Trout said after the game. "The team played hard, and we battled back. Soler's homer was huge."
The Rangers didn't go down without a fight. Marcus Semien drove in four runs, including a two-run homer of his own in the seventh. However, the Angels' bullpen managed to shut down the Rangers' offense in the later innings, securing the victory.
Other notable performances included Travis d'Arnaud, who hit his sixth home run of the season. Jose Fermin earned the win, pitching a scoreless inning, while Kenley Jansen recorded his 16th save.
With these two home runs, Trout has moved closer to the 400 career home run milestone, now only six homers away.
