Baseball is back to remind us in the cold, snowy, blustery winter that the grass will be green again, that the smell of hot dogs will again fill the air, that crowds will come again in tee shirts and shorts to dance and sing during the seventh inning stretch. Though the thrill of a playoff race is still many months away for some (and years away for others!) for us, it starts today.
Who will be this year's champion? With two different winners the previous two seasons, will either Leo or Wichi come through in a best of three to claim the MLB 09 The Show's Ultimate Crown? Or will a third party lying in the wings rise to the occasion to claim their right to enter the Hall Of Champions?
Best wishes, my friends. Play brave, stay the course in this sprint rather than marathon. No matter the result, I sincerely believe we are all champions.
Yours Truly,
