ANAHEIM, Calif. – Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout exited Monday night's game after the first inning because of a strained right calf.
The outfielder was limping after running to third on an inning-ending popup against Cleveland. The three-time MVP entered the day sixth in the American League with a .333 batting average, but was 1 for 17 in his past six games.
He snapped a five-game hitless streak Sunday at Boston, which was a game shy of the longest of his career. Juan Lagares moved to center field after Trout departed and Jose Rojas entered the game in left.
