CLEVELAND -- Mike Trout says he is still aiming to return to the Los Angeles Angels lineup this season despite a lengthy and frustrating recovery from a calf injury that has sidelined him since May 17.
The three-time AL MVP said Saturday before a game in Cleveland that he hasn't given any thought to shutting down for the year.
"I'm just trying to get back," Trout said. "Obviously, we're running out time here, but my main focus is to get back on the field no matter when it is."
The center fielder said he thought he'd already be back after injuring his right calf running the bases May 17.
