With this potentially being the biggest sports breaking news event of the year I quickly got out of bed and began going through a [...]

Every year I am excited for the beginning of the new baseball season and every year midway through opening day I can’t wait for the season to be over. 2009 would be no different as the Arizona Diamondbacks opened their season off at home against the Colorado Rockies.
