Cubs 4, Athletics 2: Everyone digs the long ball

It was another gloomy, rainy day in the Valley of the Sun Wednesday. I can’t remember a Spring Training season where there was this much bad weather in the Phoenix area.

The Cubs, however, ignored the poor conditions, got home runs from Cody Bellinger, Edwin Rios and Christopher Morel, and defeated the Athletics 4-2 at the Cubs’ old spring park, HoHoKam Stadium.

Bellinger’s home run came in the first inning [VIDEO].

The A’s tied the game with a run off Rowan Wick in the fourth.
