The Angels wonder Shohei Ohtani and star infielder Mike Trout played together almost after a year. Notably, it was Trout’s first appearance in the ballpark after May 2021. And the power duo of the Angels didn’t disappoint their fans and helped their team to win over Arizona Diamondbacks at Tempe Diablo Stadium. If the two continue to play like that, then the Angels might be a serious threat to other teams in the league.

Mike trout who played his first game since last year’s May, went 2-for-2 with two singles to left field. On the other hand, Ohtani also went 1-for-2 with a single to left in the second innings. The Japanese star played as the No. 2 hitter for the Angels, while Trout batted right behind him.

Mike Trout, who played his first after a long time, said that he feels healthy and good. “It had been a long time,” said Trout. “I felt really good. I was a little anxious before the game. But I felt really good in my two at-bats. I was seeing some pitches. It was my first live because I was just tracking the other day. Being able to be out there with the guys was fun.”
