Trout passes own season homer record as Los Angeles Angels beat Texas Rangers

Mike Trout notched another career record with his 42nd homer of the year as the Los Angeles Angels nailed a 5-1 win in their first of two road games against the Texas Rangers on Tuesday.

The outfielder smacked a Joe Palumbo pitch to left in the first inning, extending his homer lead in the American League and drawing level with fellow Angelino Cody Bellinger of the Dodgers at the top of the Major League.
