MESA, Ariz. — Cubs reliever David Robertson could only smile when locker mate Michael Hermosillo sent a breaking ball over the fence during live batting practice Tuesday.
“This is about as fun of an atmosphere as you can have,” Robertson said. “Facing your teammates, you just want to make sure you don’t hit one of them. I’m working on stuff — I’m not really too focused on strikeouts or walks or anything like that. If they put the ball in play, it’s good. It’s in the strike zone.”
