Most Wonderful Time of the Year (Not Christmas)

February to October is the most wonderful time of the year, in my opinion. Why is that? Baseball season. I always love when baseball season rolls around because it brings a lot of people together. It also means my favorite time of year, summer, is soon-to-be approaching.

Yesterday, I watched my first full Spring Training game of 2019. The Nationals took on the Cardinals and it was a blowout in favor of the Nationals. I was clipping highlights of that game as part of my internship and throughout the game, I was starting to transition back into my happy place, knowing the 182 regular season games were almost upon us.

Most people argue they don't like baseball because it is so slow. Yes, it is slow, but you just never know what is going to happen. There are so many superstars in the game of baseball that always try to give 110% each time they participate. Why do I love baseball so much? Not only does it remind me of summer, I just love the enthusiasm of the fans at baseball games and it also occupies a lot of time in my family's personal life because my youngest brother participates in travel leagues. Baseball is just amazing. That is why it is known as America's Pastime because it brings people together and it is just amazing to watch.
