The Angels, for the first time in 20 years, have the No.

It's like Rush Limbaugh sending contributions to the Democratic campaign. Seeing Lee Iacocca driving a Toyota. Frank Sinatra rapping. Pitcher Steve Howe pulled his white van into the New York Yankees' replacement camp parking lot at 9:20 Saturday morning, ducked into the offices and came out announcing that he is gainfully employed.
