Thursday was the day everyone circled on their calendars – or set a reminder on their phone. Opening Day was supposed to arrive.

Marty Brennaman, who won’t be sitting in the Cincinnati Reds’ radio booth for the first time in 47 years, was scheduled to be the grand marshal in the 101st Findlay Market Opening Day Parade to begin his first season in retirement. Rob Dibble wrote on Twitter that the “Nasty Boys" were going to be together for the parade as the Reds celebrated the 30th anniversary of their 1990 World Series championship.
