ANAHEIM -- On his final swing of the year, Angels superstar Mike Trout smacked a solo homer, giving him five blasts over his last seven games to end an otherwise up-and-down season on a high note.
After hitting career homer No. 400 in Colorado on Sept. 20, Trout met with the media on Tuesday and said he finally fixed a flaw in his mechanics that caused him to have a down year by his standards. Trout showed off that revamped swing over the final week of the season, hitting four homers over his last four games, including a solo blast in the first inning of a 6-2 loss to the Astros in the season finale on Sunday at Angel Stadium.
“He talked with you guys openly about how he’s been feeling these last few weeks and getting past and through the milestone,” interim manager Ray Montgomer
