If there was any question, Mike Trout is still really, really good at baseball. Hit a 2-run homer a little bit ago, his 18th.

Just jumping in quickly. Jeff Brantley had a good one very early in the game (after he knocked in Heisey, I think) - he said we should start calling him "Clutch-wick". I thought that was a good one.
