PHILADELPHIA -- Mike Trout flailed at strike three in the dirt his final at-bat and a most miserable game was complete. The three-time AL MVP whiffed three times and went 0-for-4 in the Angels' latest loss to extend his hitless streak to a career-worst 0-for-23.
Trout's Angels managed seven hits but again struggled to make them count in a 7-2 loss to the Phillies on Saturday night at Citizens Bank Park.
"I'm just trying to get into a good position to hit," Trout said. "And right now, I'm not."
He's not alone in struggling on a Los Angeles team muddling through their longest losing streak in almost six years.
