Chicago Cubs Smash Los Angeles Dodgers 7-2 in Streaky Victory Despite Financial Challenges Staying Strong
Spring training bragging rights won’t make up for a sidelined Mike Vasil
Tristan Peters had a rout-preserving robbery of Freddie Freeman in the top of the sixth. While it may just be Spring Training, the White Sox can at least say they took one game from the Dodgers this year. The Good Guys took care of business in their 7-2 victory — but it may have come at a heavy price.
The Sox bench came through today. Lenyn Sosa and Luisangel Acuña led a first three-spot inning in the second. Sosa’s leadoff double and Acuña’s single and steal got Chicago on the board first, thanks to Dalton Rushing’s throwing error.

Sosa ended his game with two hits, two runs and an RBI, while Peters topped his three-RBI day off with a Freddie Freeman home run robbery to get Grant Taylor out of bases-loaded, sixth-inning jam.
