Happy MLB Opening Day! While this is not an official holiday (despite real life effort by some to make it a federal holiday — the new schedule in 2018 that have all 30 teams scheduled to open* on the same day is a great start for that), today marks a historically earliest start for MLB action in its long history. Consequently, we open this week’s updates on Cal Baseball/Softball with a MLB Bears update.
Breaking camp with the Big League club to have your name announced in the pregame on-field ceremony on Opening Day is a big deal for a lot of professional baseball players.
