Mike Trout spent part of his Friday at the ESPN Zone in Anaheim conducting a Q&A session with MLB Network’s Brian Kenny before a screening of “Mike Trout: Millville to MVP,” an hourlong documentary that the network will air on Sunday, April 9, at 8 p.m. EDT.
The film chronicles Trout’s rise from a small town in South New Jersey to become arguably the best all-around player in baseball, a 25-year-old who has won two American League most valuable player awards and was the MVP runner-up three times in his first five seasons.
Among those interviewed for the film are Trout’s parents, Jeff and Debbie; former Angels outfielder Torii Hunter; current Angels Kole Calhoun and Richards; Trout’s Millville High School coach, Roy Hallenbeck; and Oakland Athletics executive Billy Beane, whose team passed on drafting Trout in 2009.
