ANAHEIM, Calif. — Los Angeles Angels<\/a> first baseman Trey Mancini, a cancer survivor and formerBaltimore<\/a>slugger, had three hits in his first major league game since 2023 on Monday night in a 5-4 loss<\/a> to the Houston Astros<\/a> in 10 innings.<\/p>\n

Mancini delivered a run-scoring single in the second inning in his first at-bat. He singled again leading off the fourth before adding a third single in the eighth.<\/p>\n

The Angels selected the contract of Mancini and put him in the lineup at first base against the Astros after putting infielders Vaughn Grissom<\/a> (left oblique strain) and Adam Frazier<\/a> (right elbow inflammation) on the 10-day injured list.<\/p>\n

Mancini, 34, agreed to a minor league contract with the Angels in February, a deal that included an invitation to major league spring training. Mancini hit .273 with six homers, 29 RBIs and three steals for Triple-A Salt Lake this year.<\/p>\n

Mancini has batted .263 with 129 homers and 400 RBIs over parts of seven seasons in the majors. He played parts of six seasons with the Orioles and hit a career-high 29 homers in 2019.<\/p>\n

Mancini then sat out the 2020 season after surgery to remove a malignant tumor from his colon. He made a successful return to the Orioles in 2021, and he won a World Series ring in 2022 after Baltimore traded him to Houston.<\/p>\n

He spent part of the 2023 season with the Chicago Cubs<\/a>. He has since played in the minor league systems of theReds<\/a>, Marlins<\/a> and Diamondbacks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mancini opted out of a minor league deal with Arizona last July after batting .308 with 16 homers for Triple-A Reno.<\/p>\n

Grissom’s move to the IL was retroactive to Friday. Frazier’s move was retroactive to Saturday.<\/p>\n

The Angels also recalled infielder Denzer Guzman from Salt Lake and transferred infielder Yo\u00e1n Moncada<\/a> to the 60-day injured list.<\/p>\n
