The Cubs string of Spring Training futility continued today as they were throttled by the Atlanta Braves, 13-4 in front of 12.003 fans at Sloan Park this afternoon.
The good news is that if all the wins the Cubs had at the start of Spring Training didn’t matter, then these losses at the end of Spring Training don’t matter either.
This was a bullpen game for the Cubs and if you’re looking for good news, Brad Keller pitched the first inning and was strong, retiring the side in order and striking out two.
