So it begins

Today is Opening Day, the best day of the year. The Mets play Washington at 1:10 (6:10 here in Ireland). The game is live on NASN. Met fans are more hopeful about this coming season than we've been since April 2001.And, all those baseball fans in Ireland (& Britain, too, I think) who don't get NASN should be able to see some games on Setanta Sports. The games begin on Setanta with tonight's midnight start between San Francisco & San Diego.

UPDATE: Mets win 3-2.
