Opening Day!


 

Opening day

 ---A field of dreams, dreams of grass and a white ball in a cloudless blue sky.

It's a  beautiful day for baseball.  

In reality, the weather on opening day may be overcast, maybe rain or even snow, winter parkas and wind chills. But that doesn't matter.   It's baseball  season again.

 What about March Madness? What about hockey and basketball?  Those are winter games.

Not today.  Today is Opening Day of the 2024 Major League Baseball season. Is it true what they say, that life begins on Opening Day?

And today, the  Chicago White Sox will be playing their home opener against the Detroit Tigers at Guaranteed Rate Field.  The  first pitch is set for 3:10 p.m. CDT.

 According to AccuWeather, it will be mostly sunny and 51 degrees, wind WSW 10 mph. 

Today everything begins again.

Play Ball!
