Cubs 16, Giants 3: The hits just kept on coming

And according to Len and JD on the TV broadcast, most Cubs players aren’t going to play games this spring as you would regular-season games — in other words, play full games, pinch hit at appropriate times, “play to win.”
Nevertheless, Tuesday’s 16-3 Cubs win over the Giants is exactly what we’d like to see from this offense during the season — and they didn’t even have Kris Bryant in this game, as he was on an excused absence back in Las Vegas at a doctor’s appointment with his wife Jessica, who’s expecting the couple’s first son next month.
