Mike Trout on Death of Tyler Skaggs: 'All I Do Is Think About Him'

Following an emotional 9-4 win over the Texas Rangers on Tuesday, Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout discussed the death of teammate Tyler Skaggs.

According to the Associated Press (h/t ESPN.com), Trout said he hasn't been able to get Skaggs off his mind: "I can't explain it, man. Lost a teammate, lost a friend, a brother. Just got to get through it. It's tough. My first at-bat, I get up there, all I do is think about him. Just a different feeling, just in shock. It's like walking around the hotel, you're just always thinking about him.
