Christian Yelich tipped his cap to Mike Trout after Trout robbed him of a homer

Mike Trout and Christian Yelich are two of the brightest stars of the game today, each hitting five home runs so far this season. Watching them every day is a treat for fans of all ages, and it didn't take long for one of these stars to rise to the occasion in Monday night's Brewers-Angels game.

Yelich put a solid swing on a 2-2 pitch from Trevor Cahill in the third inning, blasting the baseball to deep center for what looked to maybe be a home run ... except Trout was out there and said "Nah, not my watch!"

The sports platitude that comes into play here is the phrase, "You gotta tip your cap," and that's precisely what Yelich did upon witnessing Trout rob him of his sixth homer of 2019.

Game recognize game, indeed.
