The best day in America and my favorite National Holiday! A day that requires full dress code violations in offices all over America. A day that has encouraged some professors to cancel class and others to throw parties. The day I am speaking of is, of course, the Opening Day of Baseball! Some people confuse the Sunday night game before Opening Day as Opening Day, it's not. The Sunday night game is an adapted game called Opening Night. Opening Day is when everyone else plays and is a day where cities all over North America hear two wonderful words, "Play Ball!"
My wife's favorite team, the Atlanta Braves, played in Opening Night (last night) and beat the defending World Champions 4-1 with a former Red Sox (my favorite team) pitcher, Derek Lowe (pictured left) starting on the mound. It was a wonderful way to begin the season and to prepare Baseball world for the pandemonium that is Opening Day. Baseball fans, the wait is over. It is finally here. Happy Opening Day!
