Indeed, 10:10 start time. Not that I can watch them anyways, since Bally Sports isn't in my streaming package. I got the MLB package free from T-Mobile, but I'm guessing their games will be blacked out.

It's supposed to be opening day, not night. Sheesh. I guess it doesn't matter if you can't stream the channel. I'm in a similar boat.

Definitely feels like an odd scheduling choice, to have the first game of the year end after midnight our time.

Yankees have a day game at home. Weird thing is that they're starting with interleague game.

That does seem strange. I don't follow baseball that much, did they end up going with the DH in both leagues yet?

I'll have to look up if that is a change, but as far as I am aware, the DH is still only in AL.
I'll admit though that I don't pay much attention to changes made in the off season.

Apparently, there has been a DH in NL since last season. That one got by me.

For 2023:
A first-ever pitch clock, the elimination of the shift, bigger bases and a limit to how many times a pitcher can disengage from the rubber.
Some elaboration - At the start of each pitch, teams must have at least two infielders on either side of second base, with all four positioned on the infield dirt. Infielders may not switch positions unless there is a substitution.

I knew it was something they talked about, but wasn't sure if it was in place yet or not. I could probably count on one hand the number of innings I actually watched last year, not counting the independent league game I went to with my dad and grandpa.

The pitch clock seems like it's going to be a great change, provided they stick with it. Spring games down like 30 minutes on average. That's huge.

Hell, the Yankees game will probably be over before the Guardians even get to the ballpark. Lol

The designated hitter is a baseball player who bats in place of another position player, most commonly the pitcher. The position is authorized by Major League Baseball Rule 5.11. It was adopted by the American League in 1973 and by the National League in 2022, making it universal in MLB.

I had a mentor once tell me that the secret to success is, "take the credit and pass the blame." He said it jokingly but I'm not sure he's wrong.

That definitely sounds like a manager philosophy to me. I think he was spot on.

Today is Thursday, March 30, the 89th day of 2023.
There are 276 days left in the year.
Today's highlight
On March 30, 1981, President Ronald Reagan was shot and seriously injured outside a Washington, D.C., hotel by John W. Hinckley Jr.; also wounded were White House press secretary James Brady, Secret Service agent Timothy McCarthy and a District of Columbia police officer, Thomas Delahanty.
On this date
In 1822, Florida became a United States territory.
In 1842, Dr. Crawford W. Long of Jefferson, Georgia, first used ether as an anesthetic during an operation to remove a patient's neck tumor.
In 1867, U.S. Secretary of State William H. Seward reached agreement with Russia to purchase the territory of Alaska for $7.2 million, a deal ridiculed by critics as "Seward's Folly."
In 1870, the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which prohibited denying citizens the right to vote and hold office on the basis of race, was declared in effect by Secretary of State Hamilton Fish.
In 1923, the Cunard liner RMS Laconia became the first passenger ship to circle the globe as it arrived in New York.
In 1945, during World War II, the Soviet Union invaded Austria with the goal of taking Vienna, which it accomplished two weeks later.
In 1959, a narrowly divided U.S. Supreme Court, in Bartkus v. Illinois, ruled that a conviction in state court following an acquittal in federal court for the same crime did not constitute double jeopardy.
In 1975, as the Vietnam War neared its end, Communist forces occupied the city of Da Nang.
In 1987, at the 59th Academy Awards, "Platoon" was named best picture; Marlee Matlin received best actress for "Children of a Lesser God" and Paul Newman was honored as best actor for "The Color of Money."
In 2010, President Barack Obama signed a single measure sealing his health care overhaul and making the government the primary lender to students by cutting banks out of the process.
In 2015, Comedy Central announced that Trevor Noah, a 31-year-old comedian from South Africa, would succeed Jon Stewart as host of "The Daily Show."
In 2020, Florida authorities arrested a megachurch pastor after they said he held two Sunday services with hundreds in attendance in violation of coronavirus restrictions. (The charges were later dropped.)
-
Ten years ago: Kaufman County, Texas, District Attorney Mike McLelland and his wife, Cynthia, were found killed in their house two months after one of his assistants, Mark Hasse, was gunned down near their office. (Ex-Justice of the Peace Eric Williams was later sentenced to death for the murder of Cynthia McLelland while his wife, Kim, received 40 years for her role in the killings.) The Associated Press became the first international news agency to open a bureau in Myanmar. Phil Ramone, 79, the masterful award-winning engineer, arranger and producer, died in New York.
Five years ago: The widow of the gunman who slaughtered 49 people at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, was acquitted on charges that she had helped plot the attack and had lied to the FBI afterward. Thousands of Palestinians marched to Gaza's border with Israel and Palestinian health officials said 15 of the protesters were killed by Israeli fire on the first day of what Hamas organizers said would be six weeks of daily protests against a border blockade; it was the area's deadliest violence in four years.
One year ago: Russian forces bombarded areas around Kyiv and another city just hours after pledging to scale back military operations in those places to help along negotiations with Ukraine. Maine Sen. Susan Collins said she would vote to confirm Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, giving Democrats at least one Republican vote and all but assuring that Jackson would become the first Black woman on the Supreme Court. (Jackson would be confirmed on April 7.) With the help of the Hubble telescope, astronomers discovered the most distant star to date, a super-hot, super-bright giant that formed nearly 13 billion years ago.
