Well its opening day in the professional baseball world and I'm stoked. I'm an Atlanta Braves fan and curious who you folks root for. I've seen Baltimore and the Cubs in other threads. So any early guesses on who's gonna do what thi season? The Braves are gonna win the NL East imho..
Who do you support? Go Braves!!!

I'm going to make a prediction that the pirates are going to be the worst team in the league..... again.
Im not a big baseball fan though. I dont mind going to games but watching on tv is just too boring for me.

Braves winning the nl east is a bold choice. They'll be good but the phils look tough.
Rockies don't start til tomorrow but can't wait. They should be pretty good this year, but the west is gonna be hard again with the giants and their badass pitching in the division |

Nice seats it looks like. I haven't been to a pro game in about 2yrs. I do go to Indianapolis Indians game about 6-8 times a year. Great atmosphere and tickets are only $25 for 3rd baseline tickets behind home dugout. Beer is $8 tho

How come its been 2 years man?
I love the atmosphere, It just doesnt get any better! Plus it was a beautiful day out. We had $16 seats, probably spent about $60 on beer I hate how sports food/drink are so expensive. At least baseball tix are super cheap.

Nice. Sorry 'bout that 7-1 ass whooping via the Rockies ![]() Just messing, hopefully this is the year the Pirates can have a winning record (18 straight years since last one). Clint Hurdle's the manager now, so gotta root for em, even tho I was glad to see him leave Colorado |

![]() The main problem with the pirates is that whenever we actually get a good player, we let him go within a month or two. This year everyones hoping for McCutchen and walker to pull us outta our slump. PNC is real nice actually, a hell of a lot better than heinz field! Its pretty hard to get a bad seat at pnc, plus you get a great view of the city. We had three rivers stadium before pnc, it was great for football but having baseball there was horrible. PNC park ![]() V.S. ![]() Three Rivers stadium lol .... huge improvement
