Column: Baseball’s Back — And I’m Already Pulling My Hair Out
Cubs reliever Carl Edwards, Jr. throws a pitch.March 28 was the greatest day on the calendar this year. It was Opening Day, meaning I could finally watch Cubs games every day. I call it my Christmas because all I thought about that day was baseball, which is why my professors saw me nosed into my computer all day.
The Cubs have only played four games, but I’m already yelling at the TV.
Opening Day went about as well as you could hope. The Cubs beat the Texas Rangers 12-4 at Globe Life Park in Arlington, Texas and proved the offense had woken back up after President of baseball operations Theo Epstein said it was “broken” after last year.
