Went to the home opener today at Fenway. They scored 13 runs and still needed to bring in the closer!

Why is it so empty?

Why is it so empty?

This is what I was going to ask lol. My ASSUMPTION is it's still a couple hours before first pitch... otherwise... the Red Sox have fallen farther than I thought.

I do miss Fenway though. I hope the new Tropicana isn't going to suck.

Looks like that was from before the game started?

Do they still take all those ads off before the game? If not, damn that's a lot of ads

Yes it was an hour before the game. It was sold out and completely packed in for the opening festivities.

It was 65 and beautiful out, then today it was 42 and rainy so we have a double header tomorrow now. Gotta love early season weather.

Early season weather and construction are why Cleveland hasn't had a home game yet. Only team to not have played one so far.

Really, if there's any team in the country with and outdoor stadium that needs LESS games in April, it's Cleveland.

April weather in Cleveland is super inconsistent but often cold and wet.

a bit of old news but Blue Jays managed to sign Vlad Guerrero jr. to an extension 14 years $500 mil which seems insane for a player like Vlad. Now the Mets are screwed if Pete opts out at the end of the season because i still think Vlad was their main plan and they didn’t want to re-sign Pete. with how negotiations went last off season I don’t think they’ll re-sign him bow if he does opt out

They caught @BigDaddy on the Jumbotron!

so over one month into the season and the Mets are doing really well. they have cooled off a bit but still first place in the East. Soto started off cold and is doing better but is still not at his potential just yet. Alonso and Lindor are doing better than I ever have thought. Lindor isn't starting off slow like he usually does and Alonso is mashing the ball. I just hope the Mets can keep this up

Edit: probably should have made this post after the mets game.....I think I jinxed them
