In reliving all of these Mike Trout home runs, we come across a lot of games against the Seattle Mariners, which is understandable since 14.4 percent of Trout’s career homers have been hit against them, more than any other team.
Today’s game is from just after the All-Star break in 2019, part of a particularly punishing stretch for the Mariners. On July 20 the Angels were in Seattle, and this was mostly a pitchers’ duel, a 2-2 game until the ninth, with Griffin Canning and Wade LeBlanc doing the heavy lifting.
