It's Opening Day. Hallelujah! It's Opening Day. Thank you to the Man Above!
Today is the joyous realization for all baseball fans that Baseball, real baseball; the kind where you don't get a text from your friend asking "Who in heaven's name is Miguelangel Sierra?; the kind of baseball that counts in the standings.
I live in New Jersey where there is still snow piled up in certain places resisting melting. Yet Opening Day tells me that Winter is Dead (and that it will never return).
Praise be to Opening Day.
And for us Astros fans, this is a particularly special day.
