As most of us know, this week is opening week for Major League Baseball. It is an exciting week because we can finally see our favorite players get back into action as well as it is a sign that summer is near with all the fun moments, nice weather, and no school. As well, social media really plays an important role in promoting it.
Normally social media does not pay any attention to baseball and is always talking about basketball or football, even in the off season like this year with football. However, when opening day approaches, baseball is all that can be seen and read. Yankees, Red Sox mainly, and those few poor Mets fans who just hope they will not come in last place in the division this year. These are the main people that I see writing on social media and there is no talk about other sports for once. It is just good old baseball being talked about and social media plays a big part of others knowing that it is opening week. Without it, many people would not know but since everyone is talking about it, many more people are paying attention to it. I enjoy that more people are talking about it because it is my favorite sport and I feel at times it can be overshadowed by other sports. It is just exciting to see all the excitement and hype this week for the start of it and the promoting that social media brings.
I'm looking forward for this season. I might try to go to a few night games at Fenway. A couple of my friends and I were talking about baseball and one of them said he liked playing but couldn’t watch it. I absolutely disagreed with him. I think night games during the summer are the best especially if you have good seats.
ReplyDeleteOur Yankees have gotten off to a rough start but definitely still excited for the season. No matter how my team is doing the baseball season is always filled with incredible plays, games, and stories. I will definitely be going to some games in the Bronx after school is over.
