Trout’s dream team faced his real team when Team USA played an exhibition against the Angels on Thursday. The game also offered some young Angels the chance to play in a star-studded lineup.
TEMPE, Ariz. — Ever since Mike Trout decided last summer that he was going to play for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic, he’s been eagerly waiting for this opportunity.
Trout’s dream team and his real team crossed paths on Thursday, with Team USA playing an exhibition game against the Angels at Tempe Diablo Stadium. Trout then hit a fly ball to the warning track, barely shy of a homer. Trout ended up going hitless in three trips to the plate, including a walk. He was one of the only members of the Team USA starting lineup who didn’t do much offensively in their 6-0 victory over the Angels. Nolan Arenado hit a grand slam in the third.
Afterward, Neto said the experience of sharing a dugout and a field with such a star-studded team was unforgettable.
