Rangers 11, Cubs 5: The most meaningless of games

There’s almost no point in me even writing a recap of the Cubs’ 11-5 loss to the Rangers Tuesday afternoon at Surprise, Arizona, the final game of the 2022 Cactus League season.

Hardly anyone was there — attendance was just 3.306 — and the guys who are going to be on the Opening Day roster who played in this game all departed early so as to not miss the team flight. According to the Bally Sports Southwest TV broadcast, even Cubs radio announcer Ron Coomer took off in the early innings.
