Twins 4, Royals 1: So It Begins

Twins 4, Royals 1: So It Begins

Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports A rollercoaster of emotions weaves its way through an Opening Day victory. The Minnesota Twins started the 2024 season with a little dose of everything — sudden excitement, an undercurrent of comfort, a heartbreaking twist. But the end result is the most important — and a 4-1 victory against the Kansas City Royals means the Twins are 1-0 to start one of their most highly-anticipated seasons in recent memory. Those four runs started counting in the first inning, when after a couple of quick outs, Royce Lewis nuked a 98-mph baseball...

Seven Tigers on Opening Day MLB Rosters

Seven Tigers on Opening Day MLB Rosters

Photo by Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire via Play ball The 2024 Major League Baseball season began in earnest Thursday (the Dodgers and Padres played a two-game series in Seoul last week) and seven former Tigers are on MLB Opening Day rosters. Josh Smith will be getting his World Series ring as the defending champion Texas Rangers begin their title defense in Arlington against the Cubs. Smith might be getting a World Series ring, but I’d argue that Aaron Nola is an even bigger winner as he was rewarded by the Philadelphia Phillies with a seven-year $172 million contract...

Quinn Ewers is back at Texas to finally live where his feet are

Quinn Ewers is back at Texas to finally live where his feet are

Ricardo B. Brazziell/American-Statesman / USA TODAY NETWORK After admittedly rushing through his entire life, the Longhorns quarterback is slowing down and putting in the work to enjoy his time on the Forty Acres and set himself up for success in the NFL. “Be where your feet are.” It’s the type of aphorism that coaches love, and Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers is fully living it for the first time in his playing career. He’s certainly not looking backwards — the mullet Ewers used to wear, long his signature haircut, is in the past and isn’t coming...

Game 1: Red Sox vs Mariners

Photo by Maddie Malhotra/Boston Red Sox/ Here we go… Well, here we are. After a long offseason that certainly left fans frustrated at times, Opening Day is here. The last time Boston won on Opening Day? 2017! Alex Cora hasn’t managed a win in the first game of the season during his tenure. Even during the amazing 2018 campaign. This is also Cora’s 811th game managing the Sox. He enters the die tied in games with old friend John Farrell. He’ll try to end his personal losing streak tonight. And he’s got the right guy on the mound. Brayan Bello, who signed a...

Zach Eflin falls apart in the sixth on Opening Day - Blue Jays 8, Rays 2

Kim Klement Neitzel-USA TODAY Sports Yandy Diaz started things right, but the rest wasn’t much fun. The Rays wont be starting the season with a run of 13 wins this year, as they fell to the Blue Jays 8-2 on Opening Day. Let’s start with the good, then get to what happened. Today was a good reminder that Yandy Diaz is my favorite consistent hitter in Rays history, specifically because he follows my personal rule for the ideal leadoff hitter: he should be terrifying. Indeed, Diaz reminded the baseball world he was the AL batting champion with a hammer over the low...

Tigers 1, White Sox 0: Crochet weaves, but Skubal shoves

Kamil Krzaczynski-USA TODAY Sports Javier Baez, a fan-favorite on the South Side of Chicago, scored the game’s only run on Thursday afternoon. In 2023, the Detroit Tigers went 1-28 when scoring one run or less in a game. In 2024, the Detroit Tigers are 1-0 when scoring one run in a game. Eat your hearts out, White Sox fans: we took over your 2024 Opening Day and we stole your broadcaster! Tigers win, 1-0. Today marked the first career MLB start for Chicago pitcher Garrett Crochet, who became just the 9th player all-time to make his first start on Opening Day — that...
