The Specialness of Opening Day
Opening Day.
Opening Day is one game, at one place and at the Sanctuary City of Baseball on the banks of the Ohio River.
To Reds fans and the City of Cincinnati, Opening Day is close to sacred. This is nothing new to readers of this web site or to Reds fans in general.
29 other major league teams celebrate Opening Day but no one does it better and no where does it means more than Cincinnati. It’s more than a parade, more than the banners and not just because the Reds are the oldest professional baseball franchise.
