Here’s the Angels lineup for this afternoon’s spring training game with the Milwaukee Brewers in Maryvale, Ariz.:

SS--Izturis

RF--Abreu

CF--Hunter

1B--Morales

LF--Rivera

2B--Kendrick

C--Napoli

3B--Wood

P--Pineiro

With the Angels scheduled to make their final trip of the spring to Tucson on Saturday, Manager Mike Scioscia said outfielder Hideki Matsui, shortstop Erick Aybar and catcher Mike Napoli will stay back in Tempe and play in a minor league game. For Napoli, the extra work is designed to help him get into a better rhythm throwing to second base, something he’s struggled with all spring. For Aybar, who has been slowed by injuries, the game will give them much-needed at-bats.
