Mike Trout<\/a> homered for the fifth time during a four-game series at Yankee Stadium on Thursday, crushing a 446-foot drive in the seventh inning for the Los Angeles Angels<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The three-time MVP joined Jimmie Foxx (1933), Darrell Evans (1985) and George Bell (1990) as the fourth player with five homers in a series against the Yankees, according to MLB researcher Sarah Langs. Trout homered twice on Monday before going deep again in the following two games.<\/p>\n

In the series finale Thursday, Trout drove a 2-2 slider from reliever Angel Chivilli<\/a> about halfway up the left-field bleachers to give the Angels a 7-4 lead. Los Angeles went on to win 11-4<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Trout went 6-for-16 with five homers and nine RBIs in the series. He has homered in his past five games at Yankee Stadium.<\/p>\n

The Angels had three home runs Thursday to bring their series total to 13, the most the Yankees have allowed in a home series in franchise history, according to ESPN Research.<\/p>\n

It was also a rare loss for the Yankees when Aaron Judge<\/a> and Giancarlo Stanton<\/a> homer in the same game. Including the postseason, New York is 53-8 when the duo both connect.<\/p>\n

Trout, who was intentionally walked in the eighth inning, is hitting .246 with seven homers and 16 RBIs this season. He is 9-for-27 (.333) with five homers and 13 RBIs on the Angels’ road trip, which coincides with him making a mechanical tweak.<\/p>\n

Trout’s career-high homer streak is seven games, achieved Sept. 4-12, 2022.<\/p>\n
