We have fantastic weather here in The Valley of the Sun to start the spring training season. And the Cubs have made it even more enjoyable by beating the Dodgers two straight to start the Cactus League season, including a 7-3 win at Sloan Park yesterday in front of 15,706 sun drenched fans. I know, these games don’t count, but it’s still fun to get the W! Here’s some pics from ace photog John Antonoff from yesterday’s Cubs win and some other shots from around the Sloan Park complex, including a simulated game in which Shota Imanaga pitched and Justin Turner got in some swings.
