Quotable:

“Spring training game results are meaningless. I cannot tell you how many spring games I’ve either listened to, watched, or attended in person, where one team is either far behind or far ahead in the middle innings, and then one team or both clears its bench and inserts either guys who have little chance of making the 25-man roster, or in some cases, people tapped on the shoulder at the minor league field and told, ‘Hey, we need you to play a couple of innings in the major league game.’

When this happens, one team’s scrubs often beat up on the other team’s scrubs and a 6-0 lead can quickly turn into a 9-7 deficit. So a ‘loss’ in a case like that isn’t anything like a loss in the regular season, not when starters are taken out after three or four innings and closers pitch the fifth, with minor leaguers getting ninth-inning saves.” – Al Yellon
