The Los Angeles Angels are facing the San Francisco Giants in both squads' first Spring Training games of the year and we have a radio live stream available for those who want to listen.
The World Champion Giants are attempting to dominate baseball once again as we saw during the offseason. They resigned their 1 and 2 hitters in their lineup in Angel Pagan and Marco Scutaro while remaining with the core of Buster Posey, Pablo Sandoval and also bringing back Hunter Pence.
The one thing they might struggle with is pitching since they remaini with Barry Zito in their starting rotation. He hasn't been the most consistent pitcher in baseball. In comparison to how he pitched in Oakland for the Athletics, Zito fell off the map in his first couple of seasons as a Giant.
As for the other California team on the field, they obviously want to win because they invested $125 million on Josh Hamilton. The Angels put together one of the scarier lineups in baseball featuring a future Hall of Famer in Albert Pujols and the 2012 Rookie of the Year in Mike Trout.
The question with the Angels is their starting rotation. They have a pretty decent bullpen that looks capable of holding games, but their starting pitching aside from Jered Weaver isn't very convincing. Teams in the A.L. West have improved and could give the Angels a hard time keeping them off the scoreboard.
The action is about half way done in Arizona, but the score is 0-0 in the Top of the 4th inning. Giants pitching has given up three hits, while the Angels' have yet to give up anything.
This could be a possible World Series meeting. Though meaningless now in the preseason, check out what talents each team possesses.
