Mike Trout hoping to return from injury for Angels next week ahead of Philly All-Star Game

Mike Trout expects to rejoin the Los Angeles Angels lineup early next week after recovering from a hamstring injury, remaining optimistic about his health ahead of the All-Star Game.
Trout has been sidelined since June 17, when he strained his right hamstring while running the bases against the Arizona Diamondbacks in Phoenix.
Running on the field at about 85% on Friday, the slugger completed his normal hitting routine, and manager Kurt Suzuki noted he might initially return as the designated hitter.
Competing in the All-Star Game in Philadelphia holds special meaning for Trout, who grew up 40 miles away in Millville, New Jersey, and is expected to earn his 12th All-Star nod.
Beyond Trout's return, the Angels continue managing pitcher Ben Joyce's rehab from shoulder surgery and left-hander Yusei Kikuchi's recovery, while nearing 90,000 franchise hits.
