Houston Astros fans — If there are three big national days that any single individual fan should be excited for, they should be Christmas, Fourth of July, and the Opening Day of the new baseball season. While there are other days for y’all to be excited for, we can all agree on this. We’re excited for Opening Day because it allows us to see our favorite baseball team play on into the Fourth of July and all the way until Christmas for the winner of the World Series.
The pitchers and catchers will report for Spring Training duty today; and, in a short while, the Houston Astros will open up the season on the road against the Texas Rangers March 29 – April 1 before coming back home to take on the Baltimore Orioles April 2.
