Mike Trout singled, walked and stole a base, but the Angels were kept scoreless until Sherman Johnson knocked in a run with an RBI double in the eighth. Minor League outfielder Torii Hunter Jr., the son of former Angel Torii Hunter, made his Cactus League debut by pinch-running for Trout in the sixth and remained in the game at center field. The younger Hunter was a 23rd-round Draft pick of the Angels last year out of the University of Notre Dame.
Rodon, who had only thrown batting practice and simulated games this spring as he gradually ramps up for the regular season, allowed just one hit -- a single to Albert Pujols in the first -- with one walk and five strikeouts.
