Angels, Ducks fly together at Spring Training

March 3, 2013

Even big leaguers get homesick from time to time. To ease the pain of being away from Anaheim, the NHL's Ducks paid a visit to the Angels at their Spring Training home in Tempe, Ariz.

The Ducks were in the area for a game with the Phoenix Coyotes, and made the 20-minute drive to spend a morning with the Angels.

Cam Fowler, Nick Bonino and Viktor Fasth took turns in the cage as Angels manager Mike Scisoscia judged each player. Fowler was deemed champion, giving him the honor of buying lunch for the entire Angels camp.

What started as a friendly visit to their neighbors turned into an expensive outing. Stick to hockey, boys.
