BOX SCORE
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) _ Alfredo Amezaga doubled home the winning run in the ninth inning as the Anaheim Angels rallied to beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-5 Sunday in their final exhibition game. Orlando Palmeiro drew a two-out walk from Byung-Hyun Kim and was running on a 1-2 pitch that Amezaga lined down the right-field line. Winner Troy Percival struck out the side the he ninth. Shawn Wooten doubled home two runs against Miguel Batista in the eighth, trimming Arizona's lead to 5-4, then scored the tying run on Jorge Fabregas' double off Kim. Steve Finley and Luis Gonzalez homered for the Diamondbacks, Finley connected in the second off Matt Wise, who allowed four runs and seven hits in 6 1-3 innings. Arizona's Armando Reynoso gave up two runs and three hits in six innings. Arizona left-hander Brian Anderson, who left Saturday's game with a bruised thumb on his pitching hand after getting hit by a liner off the bat of Glenallen Hill, said before the game that he would not miss his scheduled start next Thursday at Dodger Stadium despite the soreness in his thumb. Notes: The Angels used balls from last year's World Series for batting practice _ complete with the Yankees and Mets logos. Clubhouse manager Ken Higdon got a discount on them from the Rawlings, which didn't sell as many as they anticipated. "I think that was part of the trade with Glenallen Hill," joked Tim Salmon, in a reference to Wednesday's trade with the Yankees. "I think it's a good reminder of what you're here for and what every day of preparation is leading up to."
