Mike Trout threw a baseball for the first time in a week on Tuesday as he continues to deal with a sprained right index finger.
Trout has served as the designated hitter for the Los Angeles Angels in seven straight games.
"Hopefully, I'll play in a few days," he told reporters.
Trout is 5-for-22 since taking over the DH role full-time.
"It's tough," Trout said. "Obviously I want to get out there, just the mindset of staying locked in. It's been different, but I'm trying my hardest to get back in the outfield."
