PHOENIX – It's better, or funnier maybe, because Vance Worley was pitching and, you see, his name is kind of inherently silly and he's the kind of guy you might remember from the early 2010s Philadelphia Phillies when he was known as 'The Vanimal.'

So in lieu of the postseason, Angelenos can now see Trout in the triennial tournament. Among a delightfully varied sea of different jerseys, the prevalence of “Trouts” stood out. At least one Angels fan went with a deepcut for the true Trout Heads, with a jersey that featured his one-time Players’ Weekend nickname, “KIIIIIID.” They had reason to think it would be a satisfying game.
Since then, he has suited up and seen his name written in the lineup 914 times, strode to the plate 3,964 times, accumulated 971 hits for a .302 batting average to pair with his 52.9 fWAR. To lean on a baseball cliche that couldn’t be more apt: that means the future Hall of Famer fails seven out of 10 times.
