Spring training is over (woo hoo!), as the Texas Rangers were scheduled to finish off the Cactus League with a Sunday matinee in Surprise, Ariz., with a group of Lance Lynn and a bunch of minor-leaguers, while others were at First Tennessee Park.
That’s the home of the Rangers’ new Triple A affiliate, the Nashville Sounds, and the game in Music City was a christening of the four-year relationship. Most of the Rangers fans were probably hoping to see were already in Texas.
Lynn would have come, too, as he lives in the area, but the threat of rain washing out his final spring tuneup was too great for him to come home for a day.
