Ahhhh - Baseball is Back!  Welcome to another season.  You've got to be
pretty optimistic about the Sox this year.  The starting rotation is
like 8 deep and the bullpen has been bolstered.  Offensively, Papi is
looking good and Lowell is back.  I'm feeling really good.
 
Regarding the home opener, I do not recall them ever opening at home
before.  And it certainly makes sense to have the Sox open on the road
in some warmer climate.  Not sure why they decided to break with that
tradition.

        Dale and Holley were interviewing Tim Wakefield about it. He
said this is only the second this has happened in his tenure. He's been
with the sox since 95.

                My guess.
                It used to be equal before the season started around the
beginning of April.
                
                In the past ten years or so, they avoided the
possibility of snow for 7 to 10 days into April by forfeiting the right
to home season openers to better climate teams.
                
                Just a feeling I've had. No data now. So, i agree with
Ray. Seems like a long time.

                It appears that Red Sox opening day is the same day as
the home opener.  I can't remember the last time we opened the season at
home.  Is it as rare as I think?
