Can't wait to see Russ going for "revenge" against the team that drafted him, gave him the starting job in Year 1, paid him nearly $200 million in 10 years, and traded him when he wanted to leave. Russ has to be fuming over that preposterous treatment.

Ignore the fact this is a home run. Stays back with hands. No panic. Firm back side. Balance allowing him to cover the plate -- no drift/leak/cheat, head on the baseball through contact, did not pull off or open hips. Quite the 0-2 battle swing from Kelenic here.

The basic notion Erik Swanson, in a tight game in the 9th, was trying to hit Mike Trout is absurd. Swanson struggled with his command the entire inning (16 pitches, 8 strikes) particularly with his fastball. And if Trout doesn't like being pitched inside... retire, then.
