Welcome to the Red Sox, Grady! (Photo by Kelly O’Connor/sittingstill and used with permission)
Okay we can give Baltimore just this one. Heck, it’s only good manners to let the home team win their season opener, right?
Didn’t see one moment of the game today (hooray for being gainfully employed!?!) but was really happy to see Grady Sizemore jumping right in there with a home run. (I, like many people, am compelled to type “Grady Little” whenever I start typing our new Grady’s name. So if you see a slip, I apologize in advance!)
As I type this, I’m watching the Rockies play the Marlins in Florida. I’m also downing a hot cup of tea because I’m a bit chilly. Woke up to ice all over the neighborhood this morning…on Opening Day. I’m hoping Mother Nature is finished with all of that crap but it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if I get snowed on at Fenway on Friday.
I do believe it was sleeting at lunchtime today. I was thusly okay with the road opener (and the six innings or so I was able to hear on the radio).
Sad to see a very good outing by Lester go to waste. Too many LOB today. Happy to have real baseball back but I look forward to the first day I get to hear the NESN broadcast.
Keep up the blogging this year!
I caught a few innings of Joe C at work then spent my lunchtime shouting at MLB Customer Services to get my MLB.TV subscription sorted.
Still, baseball’s back and all’s right with the wirld.
