So far the scores look like something out of the Deadball era.

That is going to kill their runs/game average as the season progresses.

Did anybody see Berkman's critique of Marlins Park? Hilarious.......he couldn't stop talking about how he didnt like it............too modern, too unorthodox, etc

Giancarlo (Mike) Stanton.

If anybody should complain with the new field it should be Giancarlo Stanton. He pounded TWO 400-foot space-shuttle launches out there into the center-field ozone -- only to have both of them come down in Jon Jay's glove and he has to play every home game their!

My feet were still numb two hours later - that was one long cold ball game.

16 innings. I think that is the most innnings ever for an opening day game.
People with fantasy players in that game are either celebrating or throwing a fit. 2 games worth of positive stats or 2 worth of negative.

One game a season does not make. But as those guys from the A team would say "great when a plan comed togher.

I am referring to theRangers of course. Kinsler homers. Lewis goes 6 innings giving up a pair. Game tied. Un comes Ogando in 6th inning to dazzle in inning. Mike Adams comes in and dominates the 8th. Then Nathan to shut the door competely. Rangers win!
