TEMPE, Ariz. _ The Steinbrenner of the West arrives in a silver Impala with the cloth top down and the sunshine pouring in.

"It's just my weekend car," Anaheim Angels owner Arte Moreno says.

He is walking the hallways of Diablo Stadium this afternoon in a bright-red team jacket. A wind is whipping off the desert. But he won't go inside. There are hellos to be said: to Angels executives, to players' wives, to the men in sombreros playing guitar at a small party in the stadium's plaza.

"We were checking out your ride," catcher Bengie Molina says as he reaches to shake Moreno's hand. "What year is it?"

"1969," Moreno says proudly.

Somehow, you can't imagine Paul Allen doing this.
