ANOTHER FEAT FOR CORY ALDRIDGE

Onetime Atlantic Leaguer Cory Aldridge is continuing to make it tough on Los Angeles Angels brass by keeping up his terrific offensive pace in spring training.

The latest feat for the former Newark Bears outfielder was a leadoff triple in the bottom of the ninth inning Friday night when more than 40,000 fans were watching the homestanding Angels as they tried to erase a 3-2 deficit to the rival Los Angeles Dodgers at Angel Stadium. Aldridge, now hitting .395, later scored the tying run and the Angels rallied for a 4-3 victory.

Michael Ryan, the other former Atlantic League player hoping to climb from a non-roster invitation to the major league roster, went 0-for-1. The onetime Somerset star is now at .270.
