TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) -Joe Saunders pitched two scoreless and pain-free innings in the Los Angeles Angels’ 13-6 exhibition victory over South Africa’s World Baseball Classic team on Wednesday.
He allowed two hits and struck out three in his first spring training start. Saunders had felt some shoulder soreness when he played long toss at the beginning of camp, but he said it’s gone now.
Saunders is coming off a breakthrough season in which he went 17-7 with a 3.41 ERA and earned his first All-Star berth.
Angels closer Brian Fuentes was hit hard in his one inning of relief, allowing three runs and three hits.
