Trout returns to lineup after resting wrist

The 23-year-old initially hurt his wrist on a dive attempt in Sunday's fourth inning, but stayed in the game and recorded three more hits, including a grand slam. The left wrist started to bother Trout when he took pregame batting practice on Tuesday (the Angels were off on Monday), but a precautionary MRI came back negative.

The Angels ordered Trout to stay away from hitting on Wednesday, but he said his wrist was feeling "a lot better."

In other news, right-handed reliever Cory Rasmus was called up from Triple-A Salt Lake to take the bullpen spot of Mike Morin, who was optioned back to the Minors after Wednesday's 6-3 loss.
