TDawg, grab your lube.

Got to catch the Angels workout at Tempe Diablo stadium yesterday. We walked up just as Mike Trout and the other outfielders were starting long toss. Trout was standing about 20 feet away from us and my 5 year old (who has a baseball knowledge limited to Mike Trout, "Go Angels" and me telling him to stop playing in the dirt at T-Ball games) says loudly "where's Mike Trout?" Mike turns around and waves to him. Then he runs over after warming up and gives my son the ball he was using. He also later signed the ball too. Quality guy. Friendly and down to earth. The Angels and us fans are extremely lucky.

Trout is the guy Derek Jeter wanted to be.

[Redondo]

Great story for you and your son to remember

[laagamer]

That's because Mike Trout is a generally good person and we're damn lucky to have in on our team.

[VariousCrap]

My 8 year old son would go nuts meeting Trout.  Trout is his hero.  Hopefully it can happen someday.

 

I'm very happy your son got to meet him!!!

So you are saying that Trout is Derek Jeter without the gift baskets.

[Glen]

If Jeter were Trout he wouldn't need to compensate. Edited February 26, 2016 by notti

Hard for me to diss a guy who bangs his way up the Maxim Hot 100 list.
