Iron Man gets into Mike Trout's head during slump (VIDEO)

Iron Man — who was seated just behind home plate for Sunday's Angels-Tigers game — made sure to give the slumping Mike Trout some hitting advice before his at-bat in the top of the 8th in a tight, 2-1 contest.

No, it wasn't baseball's version of Iron Man, Cal Ripken — or even Tony Stark — but some Tigers fan dressed in a cloth version of the superhero's exoskeleton armor.

Trout grounded to third, stranding a runner in scoring position as the Tigers held on to their narrow lead and eventually took their second straight game (and the series) from Los Angeles.

As for Trout, back-to-back 0-fers and five Ks in two games might make him to listen to anybody — even some dude in a costume.
