MESA, Arizona — On a day when the bigger stories were off the field (including the signing of Kyle Hendricks to a multi-year extension), the Cubs and Red Sox took part in a silly game in which minor leaguers played most of the time and the Cubs won 16-7, in the final game of spring training in Arizona in 2019.
And what I thought of most, considering these two teams, was that I am now hoping that they will be the teams involved in the last game of 2019, sometime around the end of October.
