Trout finished the game 2-3 with a double and a walk. Trout’s next game in this jersey came on September 18th as the Angels won 9-7 over the Oakland A’s at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum. Trout hit a solo home run off Daniel Mengden in the fourth inning for his 35th home run of the season and the 236th of his career. Trout wore this jersey for a third time on September 22nd at Houston where the New Jersey native finished 1-4 while hitting his 38th home run of the season and 239th of his career and drove in three runs with that one swing. Overall in these three games Trout went 5-12 with two home runs, four RBI and two runs scored.
