Today is a great day despite the fact that up here in Maine, at least, we are experiencing a roughly 30-degree drop in temperature from last year. You see, today the Red Sox will be playing baseball on television. In color! They’ll be taking on college players in a doubleheader against Northeastern and Boston College, and the players are very obviously not ready for baseball yet. The start of spring training features a lot of pitchers getting loose and hitters without timing. Still, it’s baseball, and in a battle between baseball and not baseball, baseball will always win.
