Mike Trout; Winged Prodigy

Mike Trout homered twice tonight, at age 20 years, 23 days...

The last player to homer twice in a game at a younger age than Trout is

Andruw Jones - August 22, 1996 (19 y, 121 d)

And the only other player younger than Trout with a 2-homer game since 1970 is

Ken Griffey, Jr. - May 30, 1989 (19 y, 190 d) and again July 5, 1989 (19 y, 226 d)

and the last guy before Griffey Jr. to homer twice in a game at an age younger than Trout is

Tony Conigliaro - September 16, 1964 (19 y, 253 d)
