Most people love springtime.
And even though this was one of the mildest winters I’ve ever been through, when the calendar turns the page to April, it’s still like everything is reborn. The sun shines brighter, the trees have leaves again... and, of course, baseball season starts again.
I’ve already lambasted Major League Baseball for beginning their regular season last week in Japan, and while I still have a few issues with the beginning of the season tonight (namely the fact that the world champion St. Louis Cardinals have to start their season on the road just because the league wants to show off Miami’s new ballpark), baseball is back and it couldn’t be more beautiful.
But if all the money and exorbitant contracts of the pros turns you off, luckily we’ve got a pretty darn good baseball team right in our own backyard.
