Punch Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Holy , Jays and Indians are going to the 14th inning!Arencibia hit a 3 run homer to break the tie in the 16th inning. After some quick 1-0 and 2-1 games, this kind of game was almost inevitable. What a way to kick off the season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After some quick 1-0 and 2-1 games, this kind of game was almost inevitable. What a way to kick off the season!That was probably the best baseball game I've ever seen!

BigBubba Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 ...in the longest Opening Day game in Major League history, no less. JP Arencibia has homered in his first game of the year in all 3 of his seasons.Extra innings, a homer by Bautista, a crop of young players trying to prove themselves, and beautiful new duds. Baseball is back! Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epper Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The following events happened today AFTER the end of the 8th inning of the Jays-Indians game:- 3-run comeback to tie it in the 9th- A 45 year old shortstop coming off the bench to play left field and first base- 5-man infield turning a game saving double play- Almost a bench clearing brawl- 3-run bomb 1 pitch after the batter messed up a sac bunt.God, I love baseball.

Sport Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 and the Blue Jays look like the Blue Jays again. It's almost like their journey in the woods of dark uniforms never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadragon76 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Gotta admit it, it's good to see the old school Blue Jay look man. Even better to hear that it went 16 (!) innings. Quite the opening day for baseball. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YessSir32 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Called the blown save by Valverde today. Glad to see guys like Jackson and Avila stepping up though. If that continues, they will easily win 100 games. Detroit Falcons (NABL) | Detroit Gears (UFL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

infrared41 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Simply stated, baseball is the greatest sport ever. Opening Day is the best sports day of the year. Night 162 last season was the greatest regular season day ever, in any sport. Anyone who disagrees should poke themselves in the eye with a #2 pencil. Yeah, I guess I'm happy baseball is back.

Sport Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 So Cincinnati is the real deal when it comes to Opening Day. I'm a lifelong Reds fan, but yesterday was the first time I've ever been in the city for Game 1. The only thing I can think of to compare it to would be a major college football game. More than half the people outside the stadium don't have tickets to the game. The atmosphere is festive and alive, and people, including the drunk A-holes are really knowledgable about baseball. I have tickets to "Opening Night" and I look forward to more of the same.I really like the pitcher that Johnny Cueto has become. I hope and predict that he has a big year. The Marlins aren't in that much trouble yet. There's so many new faces, we should've known they'd be a little ricketty out of the gate. They'll figure it out. Also, their best look is the black hats, black jerseys, gray pants. It sort of ties in with how they used to dress while still showcasing the new colors. I really like it. Still not used to calling them Miami though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

IceCap Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 That Jays/Indians game....Just wow. One of the best games I've seen in years. The new unis helped too Anyway, for better or worse, there's a lot of hope this year in Blue Jays nation due to the additional playoff spot. Whether or not the Jays actually play up to their potential this season remains to be seen, but that was one hell of a way to start things off.
