Los Angeles Angels superstar Mike Trout moved up a very special list in team history as the Halos beat the Boston Red Sox 7-6 on Monday night at Fenway Park.

Trout, who is recently off the injured list, went 3-for-4 with a home run and three RBIs, raising his average to .225 and his OPS to .804. Furthermore, he is now second all-time in Angels' team history with regards to hits. Trout now has 1,675 hits, which passed Tim Salmon and he is now only behind Garrett Anderson (2,368).

With his third hit of the game tonight, Mike Trout now has 1,675 career hits. He passes Tim Salmon (1,674) for second-most in #Angels history.

Only Garret Anderson (2,368) has more.

Though injuries have hampered him over the last five seasons, it should not be forgotten how good Trout has been. An 11-time All-Star and a nine-time Silver Slugger, Trout is also a three-time MVP. A career .297 hitter, he has 388 home runs and 977 RBIs.

In addition to Trout's excellent night, the Angels also got home runs from Zach Neto and Jo Adell, with Adell hitting two blasts.

With the win, the Angels are 27-32 on the season and they are in fourth place in the American League West. The Red Sox are now 29-33 and they are in fourth place in the American League East.

The two teams will play again on Tuesday night with first pitch coming at 7:40 p.m. ET. Left-hander Yusei Kikuchi, who was signed this offseason, will pitch for the Halos. He's 1-5 with a 3.06 ERA.

Brayan Bello, who has battled injury this season, will take the mound for Boston. He's 2-1 with a 3.83 ERA.
