Baseball!
Baseball season is almost here, and I couldn't be more excited, as the Reds are #1 in the power rankings to start the season. If you follow baseball at all, you would now how amazing the Reds season was last year, and how disappointing it was at the end. They lost 3 games in a row to the San Fran Giants and made Buster Posey a hated man to many people. Flashback: I was sitting in study hall listening to the game 5 of the series between the Reds and Giants on my phone. And then it happened. An infamous grand slam by Buster Posey that led to the Reds collapse and ended their hope for the world series. I don't think I talked to anyone for the rest of the day I was so upset. But, even though it ended badly, their were still some shining moments from last season: Homer Bailey's no hitter, having the best record in the MLB, and winning the NL central. And everything is expected to be even better this year. They have arguably undoubtedly the best hitter in the MLB with Joey Votto, the hardest throwing closer with Aroldis Chapman, and one of the best pitching staffs in MLB. Oh, and we got rid of the strike out king Drew Stubbs, and got the coolest Korean player ever, Shin-Soo Choo. All of those add to a great season that starts in 11 days.
