Mike Trout makes HR-robbing figurine come to life on giveaway night
Life imitated art Friday night for Mike Trout and the Los Angeles Angels.
The team gave fans a figurine of the center fielder robbing a home run --€“ and then Trout went and took away another potential home run in a 9-4 loss to the Baltimore Orioles.

It's possible that this second-inning drive off the bat of Joey Rickard would have stayed in the yard, but Trout was taking no chances after Rickard had homered in the first inning.
