Sounds like every home opener for the last four decades

Bad weather, bad traffic, and frighteningly horrible Major League pitching”
Tuesday, however, offered the Rangers a rare chance to make a different impression on the 48,808 fans who braved a less-than-sunny forecast and the prospect of gnarled traffic because of construction around Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.
Alas, it turns out the pitching may be a lot like the construction – it’s a work in progress.
In an 8-1 loss to Baltimore, Mesquite’s Jason Jennings walked the bases loaded in his first inning in Arlington. The bullpen was up by the third, and Jennings was gone before the end of the fifth.
That’s my hometown 9. And there’s not never been construction around the Ballpark. Or Arlington Stadium, for that matter.

…funny thing, though…they opened up the press box for “good baseball bloggers” and other random media. I read it after the fact or I woulda sentcha a train ticket to get you and your laptop into the press box…at the very least, I think, you might have enjoyed some free beer or sumthin’.

I’ve never heard anybody suggest that before.

“good baseball bloggers”
I’d have to be a good blogger first, then start writing about baseball again.
