(MCT) — SURPRISE, Ariz. — The White Sox and Rangers will play their first meaningful game April 30 in Arlington, Texas, but A.J. Pierzynski was relieved Tuesday after playing against some of his former teammates following an eight-year association.

“It’s just another game,” Pierzynski said after hitting a single in two at-bats in the Rangers’ 14-8 loss to the Sox. “I’ve said all I need to say about the White Sox. I talked to people I need to talk to over there. That’s it. I’m happy it’s over and people can quit asking me about it.
