The people of West Palm Beach invested in a new baseball facity for the sake of attracting two premier clubs to their community for spring training. A year later, they are the spring base of the World Series Champion Houston Astros.
Once we get past New Years, the new baseball season is always a fast-coming, can’t-get-here-soon-enough-thing for some of us.
If you are among our connected kindred spirits, we hope this information helps stir the imaginings of how you may also be able to plan your way into contact with earliest connection point possible.
Opening Day (Away), Thursday, March 29th: The Texas Rangers. Oh yeah, there’s the Opening Day calculation too. The Astros begin their official 2018 game schedule earlier than ever and on the road this year. Their 4-game series in Arlington will carry them through Sunday, April, 1st.
Opening Day (Home), Monday, April 2nd: The Baltimore Orioles. The 7:05 PM game at MMP is the start of a 3-day series at home for their first games that count at home as the defending champions of the 2017 baseball world.
Any ideas you have on how you shorten the wait for next season are both welcomed and appreciated.
