Beautifully written as always. It’s ironic that Bryce Harper, who came up around the same time as Trout and was initially as much of a sensation, was soon seen as a flash in the pan, not to mention an injury risk - and yet today, Harper (albeit with a slow start this season), is still mashing. (Oh, and thanks for your take on “ringz” culture, which has driven me nuts for years because these are team sports that don’t depend on any one player, no matter how great)
Mike Trout does a lot of community good work, and away from cameras. He is quiet and unassuming, and great for baseball everywhere and specifically Orange County.
