Chad Bettis of the Rockies was diagnosed with testicular cancer. He may make a full recovery, though.

I purchased Fox Sports package from SlingTV for Roku. Watching the Reds and Padres. I used to watch almost every Reds game. About 2010, my interest in baseball had been declining. Then when they fired Dusty Baker, I pretty much stopped watching except for the occasional game. For some reason, baseball is calling m back. It was tied for my favorite sport, along with football. But, I probably know more about baseball than I do even football. I don't even know 3/4ths of the Reds players. Time to get my mojo back.

After 27 years of immeasurable love for football, baseball has surpassed it. Football has been dying for years.

OPENING DAY A couple of buds at the gym and I were talking about baseball a couple of days ago and we got into a discussion about pitchers who can hit, and one dude immediately brought up that Bumgarner was a damn good hitter for a pitcher. Madison Bumgarner becomes the first pitcher in baseball history to hit two homers on opening day. You'd think San Fran won, but they didn't. Makes it even sweeter. Weehee.

Jon Gray looking great in the first inning. 2 Ks and a fly out. I remember when the Rockies picked him up with the 3rd overall pick in 2013. I couldn't believe they actually looked at a pitcher in the offseason. He looked good last year and it looks like he's gonna be our #1 starting pitcher. A lot of talent behind the guy.
Arenado was just hit by pitch... Trying to injure the best player in baseball, are ya?!?!

Nolan Arenado just made a game winning double play at 3rd base. This dude is the best player in baseball. No doubt about it, the best 3rd baseman. By far.

Oh, he did his job on a routine rudimentary play. Bravo. That ball would've gotten by most 3rd baseman, if not every 3rd baseman. And that's forgetting the fact that he was able to post up and fire a throw from his knees fast enough to beat the speedy Jonathan Villar to 2nd base to set up the game winning double play.
