Spring officially started back on March 20th but for baseball fans like myself all over, today marks the true start of spring. Baseball is finally back in season with a full slate of games on the schedule today. Not even the rainy weather here in New Jersey could keep me down. There’s just something magical about the start of a new season. The bunting is out, the grass is greener than ever and stadiums around the country are packed. Every team starts off in the same place and they all have the same hopes. Everyone is in the race at this point and fans everywhere have something new to root for. I’ve been waiting for this day since the Astros won game 7 of the World Series back in November. I am a diehard Yankee fan and will never be shy about my biases but there are plenty of other storylines to look forward to as well. There are a lot of teams primed to have great seasons. New players are looking to make a name for themselves and older veterans are looking to prove they can still produce. No matter who you root for, no matter your team’s outlook, Opening Day feels like a holiday. So wherever you are on this Thursday afternoon, find a screen, turn on some baseball and celebrate with me. The long winter is finally over, and baseball is back.
