Baseball is Here!

The weather starts to get warmer, the sun stays out a little longer. The flowers start to bloom, the birds start to chirp. The lawns gets mowed, we fire up the grills, slap on some dogs and burgers. Baby, it's Spring and that means it's time for baseball!! Not everyone gets as excited at I do about the beginning of baseball, but then again, there are many more who await this day far more eagerly than I. And while the spring marks the end that is nearing for basketball and hockey, I can't help but get excited for those nice sunny days at Coors, a four dollar rock-pile ticket in one hand, a Helton burger in the other. It means the beginning of box-scores, the oh so wonderful box-scores that I find myself scouring through after games, noticing those little tendencies players have; one players' struggles against lefties, his dominance against righties, & his crazy road/home splits. Baseball comes at the perfect time of the year to remind us to slow things down a little. It allows us to sit and enjoy the wonderful sun and warm weather heading our way. Lets get ready for hotdogs, lets get ready for lemonade. Lets get ready for Tulo-Scutaro double plays, lets get ready for diving grabs. Lets get ready for home-runs, triples and strikeouts. Let's get ready for some Baseball!!
