Opening Day!

Who doesn't love Opening Day? This will be an especially great one, after last years delay. All 30 teams.
Some cool info because I have nothing better to do. Opening Day is usually a weather mess, but this year, there is only one game that appears to be in any danger, the Blue Jays-Yankees game.
The Pirates will be playing under sunning, windy, 34 degree skies today, and appears from rotoworld weather info for each game, will be the coldest of venues, though many will be in the 40's.
The warmest? San Diego tops the list followed by, get this, Colorado! I'm guessing not many figured for a 70 degree game for the Rockies when the schedule was announced, I guess the good karma comes from hosting the champion Dodgers.
Four games on ESPN for those with that on their television. MLB didn't give us mlb.tv subscriptions for our season tickets, but as someone who reattached the cord (streaming services+internet were more expensive then crazy good bundle offer from xfinity) it's with my cable package.
Any games besides the Pirates look interesting to you? Nice pitching matchup if the Jays-Yanks game goes. Mets and the late night extension of Lindor, plus the breaking news about the Nats being hit with Covid problems makes that one interesting. A lot of divisional games starting off the year, so I'll probably end my day watching the Astros and A's.
Watching replays of Neil Walker and his 2 Opening Day heroics against the Cubs, especially the 10th inning walk off HR in 2014. Love the slow motion replay as the fans slowly start to rise as Walker heads down the first base line. Very cool stuff indeed.
Weather has been in box scores since 1989 according to the Chicago Tribune, and in home openers when the weather is in the range it will be today for the Cubs and Pirates, the Cubs are 2-4.
Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs! Let's Go Bucs!
