Today’s Mike Trout home run is one of his many (well, eight in all) long balls against Felix Hernandez of the Mariners. Though King Felix was able to get the last laugh in this one.
On August 15, 2016 the Angels hosted the Mariners on a Monday night in Anaheim, with Ricky Nolasco pitching for the Mariners.
Trout has eight career home runs against Hernandez in his career, his most against any pitcher, and he’s faced Hernandez 99 times, 38 more plate appearances than against any other pitcher.
