Hot damn! Baseball is back and I couldn’t be happier about it!
Not only do us sports fans have March Madness to look forward to this week, but we also have the kickoff of the new Major League Baseball season with the Tokyo Series beginning Tuesday morning at 6:10 a.m. (U.S. eastern time).
In the first two contests of the campaign, MLB will be hosting the series at the Tokyo Dome in Japan between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs. The games will be televised on Fox. (RELATED: New Stadium For Tampa Bay Rays Officially Dies, Relocation Now Back On Table)
To hype up their fanbase for the special series, the Cubs dropped a grade-A video that features starting pitcher Shota Imanaga and outfielder Seiya Suzuki, who are both from Japan. In the 50-second clip, the Japanese stars talked about how they felt honored to be able to play professional baseball in their home nation, and doing so while speaking their language.
It’s a magnificent hype video, and one that will give you pure chills.

Damn, I’m so excited that baseball is finally here. I’ve literally been watching spring training action every single day since it started, so I’m definitely ready to go.
Plus, I’m not even gonna lie, I’m looking forward to getting back to betting after racking up last season. They say baseball is a hard sport to bet on, but my first season was a massive success.
And I’m hoping to continue that starting with the Tokyo Series … let’s go!
