When we talk about the greatest baseball players of the game today, the first name that comes to mind for any baseball connoisseur is Mike Trout of the Los Angeles Angels. In 2012, when the then 20-year old Trout played his first full season in major league baseball, he gained the full respect of his teammates immediately. “He is one of the most dynamic players I have ever seen, if not the most,” teammate Mark Trumbo acknowledged about him. Manager Mike Scioscia went even further. “He just does it in so many areas,” Scioscia said. “He’s doing it in the batter’s box, he’s doing it with the glove defensively, he’s doing it with his legs.” And there is more. Inspirational. Awe-inspiring. Team-player. Role model. Heroic. First-class. When we talk about model athletes for teenagers and young athletes today, not just in baseball but in any sport, there aren’t enough adjectives to describe Mike Trout’s incredible impact on the youth population. Trout has become the idol baseball player for hundreds of thousands of children who want to “be just like Mike.” (No, not that Mike. Baseball Mike, or as some know him, Philly Mike.). But Trout’s success goes even further back than when people knew him as an All-Star baseball player and future Hall-of-Famer from the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. The star outfielder has not only astounded fans with his play on the field, but he has also impressed with what he has done off the field. His story has become an inspiration for thousands of little leaguers who are looking for the perfect athlete to idolize and be like. Hope you liked this excerpt!
