The Angels have placed center fielder Mike Trout on the 10-day injured list due to a fractured hamate bone in his left hand that he suffered Monday night against the Padres.
The 11-time All-Star left Monday’s game in the eighth inning while after fouling off a pitch from San Diego’s Nick Martinez. The Angels training staff then examined Trout in the dugout before he made his way to the locker room.
“I just took a swing, and something felt uncomfortable,” Trout said, via ESPN. “I can’t describe the pain I felt. I never felt it before, ever, before this. I never had wrist problems or anything. Just freak things.”
