Mike Trout is widely considered the best all-around player in baseball, and here's a treat from his second season in the Big Leagues with the Los Angeles Angels: the actual 2nd base bag he stole in a September 2, 2013 home game vs. the Tampa Bay Rays. In the bottom of the 6th inning, Trout swiped 2nd base off Rays reliever Cesar Ramos for his 2nd steal of the game and 31st of the season (he finished with 33 that year). The Angels won the game easily 11-2. Trout followed up his incredible Rookie of the Year campaign in 2012 with an MVP runner-up season in 2013. If not for two monster offensive years from Miguel Cabrera, Trout could be looking at back-to-back MVP campaigns in his first two full MLB seasons. Not bad for a happy-go-lucky 22-year-old from New Jersey. The bag comes as any game-used base would, with its metal attachment and weighing around 15 lbs. altogether. The red Angels logo is stamped on each side panel. Infield dirt from Angels Stadium a-plenty!
Comes the MLB Authentication hologram sticker (EK 666779).
