Angels Make MLB History in Red Sox Game
Angels Make MLB History in Red Sox Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Los Angeles Angels entered their series opener against the Boston Red Sox eager to rebound after dropping two consecutive games to the Cleveland Guardians. These losses brought their season record to 26-32, keeping them in fourth place in the AL West.

This trio of home runs marked a historic achievement: the Angels became the first visiting team in Fenway Park's storied history to hit three homers in the first inning. Given that Fenway has been a Major League Baseball landmark since 1912, this is a major feat the Angels franchise would be proud to have achieved. Neto's leadoff homer was his 10th of the season, continuing his impressive campaign, while Trout's three-run blast marked his first home run since returning from a lengthy injury and his 10th of the season. Adell's solo shot was his eight of the year, adding to his growing contributions to the team's offense.

MLB Reacts to Mike Trout News During Red Sox Game
MLB Reacts to Mike Trout News During Red Sox Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Los Angeles Angels right fielder Mike Trout returned from injury on Friday. Suffering a left knee bone bruise against the Seattle Mariners on April 30, Trout missed nearly a month, making his return against the Cleveland Guardians this past weekend. Advertisement In three games against Cleveland (two starts) Trout went 5-for-10 with two RBIs. He also made multiple hard outs, which has been a theme for him this season, as his expected stats well outrank his actual numbers. Staying in good form on Monday in his first at-bat against the Boston Red Sox, Trout crushed a 454-foot three-run home run over the Green Monster at Fenway Park. For Trout, this was the 388th home run of his career and 10th of the 2025 MLB season. This marked the 13th different time in his future Hall of Fame career that Trout reached double-digit homers in a season. MLB reacted to this news with a post on X. Advertisement "Mike Trout has a 10+ HR season for the 13th time in his career!" the league exclaimed. The only two times in Trout's career where he did not reached at least 10 home runs are 2011 and 2021. In 2011 he played just 40 games after being called up from the Minor Leagues for the first time, and in 2021 he played just 36 games due to injury. One of the greatest players ever, Trout's career statistical totals have been limited due to injuries, but his overall numbers are among the best in MLB history.
