Why on all days does my supervisor call a meeting for me at 2 o'clock. I'll try to catch some because it's the first game of ST. Yes, it's meaningless...but it's the first game of ST. I wore my Cubs tie today and I'm ready for some baseball.

[C.C.]

Soto's going yard in his first AB. Book it!

[shnsajax]

Suddenly I don't care that much about innings 1-3 maybe 4.

On a side note, are the A's planning on trying out Fox at 3B full time?

[Shilzzz]

welp, here we go again. although this year i'm unusually apathetic, i hope the team is better than i think.

[Guest]

I wish Caridad would get in sooner than that, so he could face some better hitters. In front of jokers like Mathes and Parisi at least.

Fox 2-2 2 HR, 4 spectacular plays at 3B

I hope he does just so we can use your tears to nourish a drought-ravaged African village.

Irrigation with tears seems like it would do more harm than good.

[Sammy Sofa]

I realize that, but it was the best I could do on the fly.

 

Maybe he cries some kind of wussy, pure water tear.

So I just paid for Gameday Audio and MLB.com has the WGN link synced up with a Baltimore station called 107.5 The Fan.

 

Another season of baseball is here to be sure.

I'm not either. Sounds like they may be having some difficulty. Heard a click and some background noises and then silence.

 

Ah, here it is.

I'm pretty darned jaded, but not so jaded not to get a shiver when Hughes just came on and said "Chicago Cubs baseball is on the air."
