The 2024 MLB season officially kicked off in Seoul, South Korea yesterday as the Dodgers beat the Padres 5-2. Game 2 of that series is happening now on ESPN; the Padres are up 12-9 at the bottom of the 8th after the Dodgers’ big offseason signing, Yoshinobu Yamamoto gave up 5 earned runs in 1 inning of work…yeesh.

The official Opening Day here in the States starts a week from today on Thursday, March 28th when the majority of teams are in action.

We got our first home run of the season when Mookie Betts went yard in the 5th inning.
