To lovers of baseball the two best days of the year are Opening Day in April and today, the first day of the World Series. Both are filled with anticipation and hope, so much like a child’s Christmas.

The pundits of sports have plenty to say about the teams, their stars – those likely and not, and even the state of the game, but I have just a few lines of my own to share.
