The common refrain among baseball fans aware of the situation in Los Angeles of Anaheim is that Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani are two of the best to ever play the game. They are inarguably two of the best playing it right now. Still, the Angels have a hard time winning games. They have famously made the playoffs once with Trout as a member of their lineup - in 2014 when they were unceremoniously swept out of the ALDS by the upstart Kansas City Royals.
Today, however, Trout and Ohtani proved to be plenty to handle the Royals.
