Angels Notes: Zach Neto Award, Mike Trout Hilarious Shot at Teammate, Halos Compared to Brewers

The Los Angeles Angels lost the opening game of a series against the Cincinnati Reds, 4-1. Taylor Ward drove in the only run, and the Angels failed to generate much meaningful offense in the loss.

Ahead of the game, shortstop Zach Neto received the American League Player of the Week award on Monday after an electric two series against the A's and Dodgers.

Neto had four home runs and eight RBIs last week while batting .320.

In other news, Mike Trout took a hilarious shot at Neto after his two-homer performance against the Dodgers, captioning a video of the shortstop taking a photoshoot after the game.

And finally, MLB Network's Ron Darling compared the Halos to MLB's current best team, the Milwaukee Brewers. Darling said they were similar in their youth and the effort they put in on the diamond.
