For the Arizona Diamondbacks, they’re awaiting Opening Day of the 2025 season. There will be ceremonies, players will line up on the baselines to be introduced, etc.
For the Chicago Cubs, it’s Games 3 through 6 of the season. Time to get down to business!
Incidentally, the Cubs are going to wind up doing that “line up on the baseline” thing five times this year.
