While I have been a baseball fan for as long as I can remember, I have never been a fan of Spring Training baseball. Fact of the matter is that if the results do not count, then I have little interest in the game that produces them.
That being said, I actually watched a little bit of the Yankees Spring Training opener against Toronto on Sunday afternoon. Did the result of the game count? Of course not. But after a 2020 season that was co-opted by COVID-19, I embraced it for what it represented to me, which is one more step on the road back to normalcy.
And that counts for a great deal. Whether the final score of the game does or not is, frankly, irrelevant.
