Early Life

Mike Trout was born on August 7, 1991 in Vineland, New Jersey to Debbie and former minor league baseball player Jeff. He has an older brother named Tyler and an older sister named Teal, and was raised in Millville. Trout started playing baseball with the Cal Ripken division of the Babe Ruth League.

On the baseball team in his senior year, Trout set a New Jersey high school record after scoring 18 home runs.

Career Beginnings

While still in high school, Trout played with the premier travel program Tri-State Arsenal. He also played in the Area Code Games in Southern California, going 6-for-11 against some of the nation's top players. After graduating from high school, Trout entered the 2009 MLB draft and was chosen by the Los Angeles Angels. He went on to play for the franchise's rookie-level Arizona Angels, and then for the Class A Midwest League's Cedar Rapids Kernels. Following this, Trout was promoted to the Class A-Advanced California League's Rancho Cucamonga Quakes. In recognition of his impressive performance in the 2010 season, he won the Topps Minor League Player of the Year Award, making him the youngest player ever to earn that honor. Subsequently, in 2011, he played for the Class AA Texas League's Arkansas Travelers.

Trout was called up to the majors in the summer of 2011 to replace the injured Peter Bourjos. Following his 0-for-3 debut, he scored his first major league hit in a game against the Seattle Mariners. Trout later recorded his first major league home run in a game against the Baltimore Orioles. After being sent back to the Arkansas Travelers for a spell, he returned to the Angels and scored his first home run at Angel Stadium. Trout started the 2012 season with the Triple-A Pacific Coast League's Salt Lake Bees before joining the Angels in April. He went on to have his breakout season, setting new Angels and American League rookie records by crossing home plate in 14 straight games. Moreover, Trout earned four AL Rookie of the Month honors during the season, capped off by a win for 2012 AL Rookie of the Year. He had another strong season in 2013, reaching his 200th career run in just his 249th game, making him the fastest to accomplish that feat in 73 years.

In 2014, Trout and the Angels made it to the ALDS against the Kansas City Royals. During the tournament, Trout recorded his first postseason home run. Ultimately, the Angels lost the ALDS to the Royals in three games. Despite this, Trout was unanimously voted as the year's AL MVP. He had more success in 2015, finishing the season with 41 home runs and 90 RBIs. The next season, Trout led the MLB with runs scored, on-base percentage, and walks, and was named the AL MVP for the second time in his career. Although a thumb injury sidelined Trout for much of the 2017 season, he bounced back in July to record his 1,000th career hit. Later, in September, he scored his 200th career homer.

Moreover, Trout earned his third AL MVP honor. In the COVID-shortened 2020 season, he scored his 300th career homer to break the Angels' all-time record.
