I am definitely happy that baseball is back. Being Canadian, my hopes are for the Blue Jays, but I'll watch any team anytime.
Toronto fans have big expectations this year, for obvious reasons. We lost the season opener last night to the Indians. It's not great having a good knuckleballer (RA Dickey) if you don't have a player who can catch it.. Three passed balls in last night's game. Anyways, we'll go at it again tonight.
I also caught the Giants - Dodgers game last night. Madison Bumgarner pitched a great game - like a 3-hitter.
While I was watching the Giants-Dodgers game, all of a sudden my tv screen was full of Yu Darvish of the Rangers pitching in the 9th inning with one out. I quickly surmised, thanks to the announcer, that Darvish was pitching a perfect game. I guess my network decided this was important - definitely a good call. Darvish got the second out but, unfortunately, the next batter got a hit. I wanted to cry for Darvish but I was all cried out from watching the Jays earlier.
