Trout is one game away from tying the major league record, which is shared by three players.
Of the three eight-game streaks, Mattingly’s did the most damage, with a total of 10 home runs and 21 runs batted in. But the argument was made after Mattingly matched Long in 1987 that his streak was among the more impressive accomplishments in major league history. Trout would very likely trade some home runs for a win, but even if his streak were to end on Tuesday, he is already one of only nine batters to homer in seven straight. Opinions seem to vary on how impressive it is to have a long streak of games with a home run. The Los Angeles Angels are 3-4 in the seven games, putting them 19 games below .500 for the season and 30 games out of first place in the A.L. The streak has Trout up to 35 home runs for the season and back to looking like his most dominant self.

Despite Trout’s brilliance, the Angels fell to defeat against the Guardians and continued their dismal season. “I’ll come in (Tuesday) and do the same thing because it’s working for me.” “I’m just putting a good swing on the ball and they’re going out.”
