What happened: Los Angeles Angels players Mike Trout, Zach Neto and Jorge Soler visited Pokemon USA in an off-field team outing. The Angels shared the visit through their official account with a nod to the franchise's catchphrase.
Why it matters: Off-field appearances like this build the personal brands of a club's cornerstone names and keep the Angels visible with fans during a stretch of the summer schedule. Trout remains the face of the franchise, and pairing him with younger bats like Neto broadens the team's reach beyond the box score.
What to watch: Attention turns back to the field as the Angels continue their series schedule this week.
