Summary

There's nothing in sports like opening day for baseball and this year, all 30 Major League teams start on the same day. Every fan has hope, the weather is getting better and we basically just get a bounce in our step. We have what you need to know about the Royals. A local tv report indicates Amazon is seriously looking to buy AMC theaters in KC. We have the details of what Amazon may want to do with 600 theaters around the world. A Dem Senator on the Intelligence committee is livid with the Biden Administration over the classified documents Joe Biden was storing at his home and offices. You have to hear this. The Russians arrest and accuse an American journalist of being a spy as our involvement in this war grows. And a covid "vax" research project shows alarming results on how many Americans have been hurt by the shot.

0:08.9	I love opening day of the baseball season,
0:10.8	and I have always loved opening day of the baseball season.
0:13.8	There is so much more to it than just one baseball game.
0:17.0	Not only is it the most over-analyzed game of the year,
0:24.9	it is also the most important game of the year in the first two months of the season.
0:34.4	Many Royals fans will go to the game or turn on their televisions or listen on the radio on Thursday and form their first impression of what this team will be in 2023.
0:36.2	And that is fair.
0:40.4	That is our right as a baseball fan. We will look at this as if it were a playoff game. It'll be the largest crowd at Kaufman Stadium for several months. It may get
0:46.3	passed at some point this year on a big game or a big promotion night or some big event or

1:23.4	with a payroll five times the size of a really crappy team with a stud pitcher pitching, and you see the Vegas line odds where a team is a huge favorite. That's not really a giant case here in Kansas City, although the Minnesota Twins are considered a much bigger threat to be a playoff team this year than the Royals. And they're a pretty big favorite on this opening day. Zach Grinke will take the hill against the twins.
1:46.8	And Vegas doesn't like this matchup for the Royals.
1:51.8	Granky was 0 and 4 with a 4.15 earned run average last year against the twins.
