I guess no one wants to see a crappy team in a literal sewer of a stadium.
Is the Oakland Colosseum the last vestige of the football/baseball stadium era that still houses both sports, at least until the Raiders move to Vegas?

The Giants just had one of their OTT but thoroughly enjoyable Opening Day pre-game ceremonies.
The end was BRIAN "The Beard" WILSON returning to Giants colors after a wierd burn-out with his former team when he was a Dodger. He ran in from center field in full uniform and threw the ceremonial first pitch to his old teammate Buster Posey.
Sadly, Brian Wilson's epic beard? Gone.

Yankees win their home opener thanks in part to Didi Gregorius and his 8 RBI (2 3 run home runs and 2 runs from a hit with the bases loaded). Though Stanton had a rough Yankee Stadium debut, going 0 for 5 with all five outs being strikeouts.
Now I know why Papi Le Batard calls him the Whiffer.

Jack Curry on YES believes acquiring Didi will go down as Cashman's greatest trade as a GM. And right now, that's not hard to argue.

It's easy to forget how raw Didi was when he was acquired as he made the great defensive plays but always botched the routine stuff. A few years later after some seasoning and the nerves of New York has worn off replacing Jeter, he is a key staple of that team and Yankees would be crazy to let him go as he's a legit top 10 SS and could potentially be a top 5 if he hits 30 HR this year

Hey, the Giants offense woke up and they beat down the corpse of King Felix 10-1.
Looks like Johnny Cueto is back to being Johnny Cueto, and not whatever he was last year. So important with all the injuries to the staff right now.

Mets spank the Nats 8-2. They have won 5 of their first 6 games.

Red Sox celebrate their home opener with a walkoff!
Hanley Ramirez is red hot right now. Going to make it hard for the Sox to keep him under 497 plate appearances if he keeps this up but that's a issue for another day.

Brewers’ Closer Cody Knebel had to be helped off the field after throwing a pitch and collapsing in a heap. Looked like a hamstring injury.

He's Canadian. He would only be miffed if it was a big bear or something. Bald eagles are nothing to him!
