I’m old-fashioned. I love baseball. I have missed it so. Tonight is a long delayed Opening Day because of the Coronavirus Crisis. The season is trimmed from 162 games to only 60. Teams will play in empty stadiums and only regional teams and with special rules. This season will certainly carry an asterisk. No problem. My favorite pastime is back and I will root tremendously for my favorite Cincinnati Reds. With all the difficulties, succor is here. Baseball is back. Go Reds!
