Yankees 8, Cubs 3: And now, on to the regular season
It’s just two days until a new baseball season!
The Cubs’ final spring training game was a clunker, an 8-3 loss to the Yankees at Sloan Park . So this is going to be a very short game recap, as the team’s focus turns to the 2026 season opener Thursday at Wrigley Field. The Cubs scored both of their runs on solo homers.
Alex Bregman homered in the first [VIDEO]. Your browser does not support the video tag. That was Bregman’s fourth of the spring and his second in as many days.
Of course, spring stuff doesn’t usually carry over to the season, but let’s hope Bregman hits the ground running beginning Thursday. Miguel Amaya also hit a solo blast, in the fifth [VIDEO]. Your browser does not support the video tag.
Personally, I think Amaya is ready to have a breakout year, presuming he can stay healthy. That would be a huge bat to have, along with his good defense. Edward Cabrera started this one, his final tuneup of the spring.
