Impact Brandon Marsh came on to pinch run for Trout, who appeared to be in considerable pain after he was struck in his non-throwing hand by Spencer Patton's 81 mile-per-hour slider. The extent of Trout's injury won't be known until he undergoes X-rays, with the Angels likely to provide an update on the matter after the game or at some point before Monday's series opener in Houston. Marsh would likely be the main beneficiary for extra playing time in the outfield alongside Jo Adell and Taylor Ward if Trout's hand injury is in fact significant enough to force him to the injured list.

Cleared to play Tuesday Trout (illness) has been cleared to rejoin the Angels lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Impact The Angels haven't indicated whether Trout will start in center field as he usually does or serve as the team's designated hitter in his return from a one-game absence, but his availability in any capacity is a welcome sight for fantasy managers who took the gamble by keeping him active this week. Trout was a late scratch ahead of Monday's eventual 6-2 win after experiencing stomach distress, but he was able to make a cameo off the bench and apparently showed improvement in his condition when he reported to the ballpark earlier Tuesday.
