MLB 2011, Prologue

The 2011 MLB season was .. well, great. I love baseball, and I don't think a year has ever gone by that I haven't kept up with MLB. I'm not sure what was different this year, maybe having cable and being able to watch games regularly for most of the season, but what a great year it was, so great that I can't possibly reflect on it fully in one blog entry. Or two. Or three. So, over the next little while, I'll take a look back at the 2011 season in four parts.

First, I'll examine the dominance of pitching this season. Next, a look at my teams and how they fared. Third, a look back at the unforgettable final day of the regular season. Last, but certainly not least, celebrating a friend and fellow baseball enthusiast's birthday with Game Six of the World Series.

I think if I figured anything out this year, it's that no matter how much I fight it, baseball is my sport. The great season of MLB ball only made me want more. Even now with the cold November weather starting to set in and hockey going full force (and the Leafs winning?!?), all I want to do is throw a baseball. But like they say, all good things must come to an end.
