Morales, batting left-handed, crushed a pitch from Josh Tomlin high into the dark Arizona night and over the stands in right-centre field. It was his first homer since May 29, 2010, when he belted a game-ending grand slam in the 10th inning against Seattle.

Tomlin gave up two runs and six hits over five innings.
Angels starter Mike Shoemaker allowed one run and five hits in five innings.

RANGERS 4, GIANTS 1

Ogando gave up three hits, walked three and struck out three in his first start of the spring. The right-hander is expected to be a long reliever when the season starts, but also could start.
The Rangers scored three runs on four hits off Giants reliever Javier Lopez in the ninth for a 4-0 lead.
San Francisco’s Brett Pill homered in the bottom of the inning.
PADRES 5, REDS 2

Volquez allowed two runs and two hits in 5 2-3 innings. He struck out six, including 2010 NL MVP Joey Votto twice.
