Today is a glorious day and it's not just because the weather has warmed up a bit and the sun is shinning and wiping away the mounds of snow from lawns and side walks across the South Coast.

No, the real joy of the day is that baseball is back! 

As of today, pitchers and catchers have officially reported to their respective spring training facilities in either Florida or Arizona.

With position players already filtering in as well, and official camp opening dates set just about a week away, the start of the season is on our heels.

For a passionate baseball fan, like myself, today really marks the start of the best time of the year.

So take a second, during the day, to check out some of the coverage and enjoy the great game of baseball because right now every team has a chance to win and every team's fans are bright eyed, happy-go-lucky and ready to go for another exciting season of Major League Baseball.
