Tyler Skaggs
Emotions expectedly ran high for the Los Angeles Angels Tuesday night as the team played their first game since teammate, Tyler Skaggs, tragically passed away at 27 age this week. Although the Angels gathered themselves to put together a 9–4 over the Texas Rangers, nothing overshadowed what was a night entirely dedicated to Skaggs’s memory.
Three–time MVP winner Mike Trout lead the team, as he always does, bravely issuing an emotional post–game statement about his late teammate and friend while also detailing his thoughts throughout the game’s course. Other players and coaches soon followed Trout, as multiple Angels who knew Skaggs well spoke on the matter, with most eventually tearing up.
