Any other Baseball fans here? 

I’m a Brewers fan. Which is a pretty good choice for a Tigers fan, they aren’t a powerhouse. 

there has been some good baseball played from what I’ve seen so far but it’s a long season.

Pittsburgh Pirates. 🤕 

Just swept Red Sox so that is something to take away from my WT suffering I suppose.

I like the Pirates. Must be something about under performing teams. 

Brewers have gone well since the opening day. A couple of big wins against the Mets which is nice as I have a mate who’s a big Mets fan so I can give it to him a bit.

Yep. Same here. I need at least 1 supporting team I follow to finally do well. I’m a Vancouver Canucks fan in the Ice Hockey and they have been terrible as well.

I saw them play live at PNC park a few years back. Absolutely awesome stadium looks over the whole city.

Jealous, Id love to see a game there one day, PNC park gets nothing but positive praise.

I watched a game at Target Field, Minneapolis the year it opened in 2010. 

Talk about impressive state of the art facility.

I definitely see design ideas adapted into the two new Sydney stadiums.

Wow, you do like suffering.

I'm not sure which is the more incredible drought.

The Canucks having yet to win the Stanley Cup or the fact that no Canadian NHL team has won it since 1993.

Both are impressive but the fact that no Canadian team has won is insane. When I was over there people just wanted to talk about hockey. They are obsessed.

40 games in and the season seems to be settling into a rhythm. Brewers top off National League Central which is great but still most likely end up in the wild card series. American League East is a step above the rest and most likely end up with 4 out 5 teams in the playoffs - crazy.

Your right about AL East, Pirates were flying, then ran into Rays, Jays and Orioles, 1 win 8 losses, yet still 2nd in NL Central which is a welcome mid May surprise.

Tough having WT be in last place but seeing the Cardinals there is deeply enjoyable.

Pirates were killing it. I think they will go up and down with the Brewers for that division. brewers had a 2-8 run as well recently but it wasn’t quality they lost to, they got swept by the Rockies. Good to see the Cardinals struggling although we start our series tomorrow so they will find some form.
