Opening Day

High Light game of the day goes to the Dodgers vs Padres: Jim Griffin hits a lead off homer in the top of the fifth to provide the only scoring as Jacob Nixon goes for the complete game shut out victory.

Frustrating game of the day goes to the Rangers vs Redbirds: Texas pounded out 16 hits but could only score 3 runs in the 13 inning marathon. R.J. Bellhorn (most unlikely) scattered 10 hits in 8 innings of work but only gave up 1 run. The worst is even yet to come as the Redbirds score the winning run in the bottom of the 13th on 3 walks and 1 hit.

Real star of the game: Kirk Donnels, almost single-handedly, leads Oakland to a 3-2 nail biting win over the Angels.

Toronto speaks AL North dominance as they down Montreal 7-1.

Philly snookers Atlanta 5-4.

Cincy still have problems early at home losing 5-2 to the Brewers.

Houston tries tandem pitching, Reagan Mathews shows them how to pitch in a Mexico City 5-3 win.

Boston ignites in 8th for come back win over Washington 7-5.
