Mike Trout Placed on Injured List with Hamstring Injury

Los Angeles Angels center fielder Mike Trout has been placed on the injured list with a right hamstring injury, he said Thursday.

Trout said he suffered the injury while running to first base during Wednesday's victory against the Arizona Diamondbacks . He hit a home run and had three RBIs in the game.

The 34-year-old veteran, who hasn't played in more than 130 games in a season since 2019, told reporters that he doesn't have a timeline for his return, but he's hoping it'll be a short stay on the IL.

The three-time American League MVP and 11-time All-Star is batting .234 with 17 home runs and 36 RBIs this season.

Jose Siri will likely play center field during Trout's absence.
