TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) _ Randy Johnson was pounded for 11 runs and 12 hits in three-plus innings Wednesday as the Anaheim Angels beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 15-9.

The NL Cy Young Award winner failed to retire any of the eight batters he faced in Anaheim's 11-run fourth, getting chased by Tim Salmon's two-run homer, his fourth of the spring.

Bengie Molina hit his third homer to start the inning, and Gary DiSarcina had a two-run double.

Anaheim sent 16 batters to the plate in the inning _ 13 before Arizona got an out _ and was helped by four errors in the inning. Pitcher Kent Mercker made the first out of the inning.

All of the runs were earned against Johnson, who had not allowed a run in his first two spring starts. The Diamondbacks made five errors in all.

DiSarcina was 2-for-4 with four RBIs, leaving his spring average at .500 (12-for-24).

Danny Klassen, who made two errors at second base, homered twice for Arizona.

Mercker, who got the win, allowed three runs and six hits in four innings.
