Coolidge's Mate to Open Season in Opening Game
In a low key start to the baseball season, Coolidge’s mate will toss the first ball as opening ceremonies proceed without the president due to his father's death. Training camps report mixed conditions with weather hampering several clubs, notably the Boston Red Sox. Major teams, including the Athletics, Phillies, Pirates, Giants, Yankees, and Dodgers, scatter for spring tours while Browns, Reds, and Cubs show varied prospects. Homeruns highlight yesterday’s exhibition games as rosters shuffle and managers assess form ahead of the long road to home openings.
