Even Mike Trout's son is a fan of the D-backs 😂 https://t.co/ERjXpZ6TGS Via @Dbacks on X

What happened: The official Arizona Diamondbacks account noted on social media that Mike Trout's son supports their franchise. The exchange occurred during All-Star week festivities in Philadelphia, where Trout is participating in his 12th career All-Star Game. It follows lighthearted media appearances where Beckham Trout declared he will surpass father Mike Trout in the major leagues.

Why it matters: Trout recently returned from the injured list on July 9 to rejoin the Los Angeles Angels lineup right before the break. Despite ongoing external chatter and trade speculation surrounding his future, the veteran center fielder reiterated this week that he holds a full no-trade clause and remains under contract with Los Angeles through 2030.

What to watch: The 96th MLB All-Star Game takes place tonight before regular season play resumes across the league later this week.
