MIAMI (AP) — Los Angeles star slugger Mike Trout hit a 473-foot home run in the sixth inning of the Angels’ series opener against the Miami Marlins on Monday night.

Trout drove a slider from Miami reliever George Soriano into the walkway high above the wall in left centerfield. It was Trout’s second homer of the game after he also went deep with a solo blast in the fourth off Max Meyer.

It was the 26th multihomer game of Trout’s career. The two homers also put Trout at 371 for his career, surpassing Gil Hodges for 81st on the all-time list.
