Let me repeat, the LA Angels, a team everyone had claimed as a bust after two poor series against division rivals, just swept a team that was one game away from going to the World Series last year, and then improved over the offseason.
If I had told 100 random people that this series would end in a sweep, I guarantee most, if not all, would assume the Angels were on the receiving end. But nay, the Halos just swept an elite baseball team and these three reasons were huge factors in the phenomenal performance.
1.) Michael Nelson Trout
After an utterly dominant series against Texas to begin this home stand, Mike Trout continued his heroics against the Brewers.
