ANAHEIM, Calif. -– It was a one-run lead in the bottom of the ninth inning and the leadoff hitter had just singled and stolen second base. In the box, with a hitter's count, stood Mike Trout, who – depending which numbers you favor -– profiles, roughly, as either the second coming of Willie Mays or Mickey Mantle's forgotten grandson.Behind him was Albert Pujols, his scowling swagger back with 21 home runs and 70 RBIs, and, after that, Josh Hamilton, diminished but still frightening with that big, lumberjack, left-handed swing.
