NEW YORK -- Angels outfielder Mike Trout put on a hitting showcase Saturday night at Yankee Stadium, crushing his 17th home run of the season to tie the Red Sox's Mookie Betts for the MLB lead.
Trout racked up five hits, four for extra bases, with three doubles, four RBIs and three runs scored added to his line as the Angels built an 11-4 lead in the top of the seventh inning.
In the fourth, Trout pounced on a slider in the lower third of the strike zone from Sonny Gray, launching it a Statcast™-projected 419 feet to left-center field for a two-run shot that gave the Angels a 5-4 lead.
