I'VE BEEN WAITING WEEKS for this night, and now that it's here I'm thinking "I can't believe the season's started!" It's a great feeling, but perhaps not so great for the Fightin' Phils tonight coming off their World Championship season. The Braves came out swinging tonight and connected for three long balls in the first two innings, none more dramatic than Brian McCann turning on Brett Myers' hanging changeup. Congrats to Jordan Schafer for homering in his first at-bat—it's all downhill from here. Also a first was long-time Angel turned Brave Garret Anderson getting his first hit, a single off of Myers' glove.
