TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) -Chicago's A.J. Pierzynski hit a two-run homer to highlight a three-run third inning, and Los Angeles catcher Mike Napoli also homered as the White Sox and Angels played to a 4-4 tie Thursday before the Cactus League opener for both teams was called after nine innings. Chicago left-hander John Danks played his first professional game with brother Jordan Danks, who started in right field, and worked two scoreless innings in his first spring start. Jordan Danks went 0 for 2 with a walk. He was caught stealing in the ninth. Angels' right-hander Joel Pineiro worked two innings and allowed three hits and one run with a walk and two strikeouts.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
