Angels CF Mike Trout out of lineup vs. Rays with sore wrist

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout is out of the lineup against the Tampa Bay Rays because of a sore right wrist.

Angels manager Mike Scioscia says the center fielder ''tweaked'' the wrist while sliding during a stolen base attempt of third base during the first inning in Wednesday night's 7-2 loss to the Rays.

Scioscia says Trout's status off the bench for Thursday's game was still being evaluated.

Trout said that X-rays on Wednesday were negative and that he would have an MRI exam Thursday.

Trout is hitting .309 with 30 homers, 60 RBIs and 21 stolen bases in 109 games.
