Mike Trout and Vaughn Grissom with back-to-back blasts! 💥 https://t.co/xibpsgSS5N

What happened: Mike Trout and Vaughn Grissom hit consecutive fourth-inning home runs against left-hander Jeffrey Springs in a 7-3 loss to the Athletics.

Why it matters: Immediate power production from the middle of the order forces opposing starters into higher-stress sequences. The consecutive swings provided a temporary offensive spark during the middle frames.

By the numbers: Trout connected on a 77.9 mph changeup, driving it 393 feet with a 101.3 mph exit velocity and a 29-degree launch angle.

What to watch: The roster looks to translate these individual power swings into consistent run support in upcoming matchups.
