Who's a bigger Philly sports fan than Mike Trout?
While mic'd up during the second inning of the All-Star Game Tuesday night, Trout was congratulated by Joe Buck for the Eagles' Super Bowl win and Trout beamed instantly.
He even shouted out Zach Ertz and Carson Wentz by name, hoping they were watching.
Trout's Angels are actually off the night of the Eagles' season opener, Sept. 6 against the Falcons.

Would he be able to make it to the game?
Asked Monday by NBC 10 Eagles producer Rob Kuestner, Trout said he hasn't decided yet but will try to swing it.

It would be a tough arrangement because the Angels are in Texas the night before and in Chicago the night after. But we're talking here about a season-ticket holding superfan to whom money is no object. Seems like a night he'd have a tough time missing.
