Mike Trout 100 Game Records

Mike Trout is having an unbelievable season to say the least. Trout has carried the Angels offense and is on pace for an MVP season. Trout qualifies as a rookie and would become just the third player in MLB history to win the Rookie of the Year and MVP in the same season (Fred Lynn in 1975, Ichiro in 2001). Trout has played in only 99 games this season and is setting records in his first 100 games of his rookie season. His stats compare to legends such as Joe DiMaggio.
