These things lead to discussions and arguments. It happens every year with the baseball All-Star Game. Another great thing that baseball does is that it puts on multiple opening days. There is a home opener and then the team goes on the road and plays another opener at their opponent s park with all of the bunting hanging from inside the stadium. Opening Days go on for a couple of weeks.
Baseball just knows how to do that as well as the midsummer classic.
Those are smart things that they do. Last year s game at Fenway Park in Boston was great. It was at a special venue and you had Hall of Famer Ted Williams out on the field before the game with all of the great players surrounding him. People were crying and getting emotional at such a touching moment. They know how to keep their history and tradition and ex-players involved in the game.
