Opening Day Arrives in Chicago!
CHICAGO, IL. April 5, 1913 - It is Opening Day in United Baseball Association! Our hardball heroes are back in town for another fresh season of baseball. It is a time of joy and optimism, a time to get away from the world for three hours, enjoy a few hot dogs, hamburgers and soda pops, holler at the umpires and cheer our favorite teams to victory. The Chicago Orphans club will host the Philadelphia Keystones.
A parade through the city leading to the stadium is planned for this morning. Tens of thousands are expected to arrive at the stadium for the game.
Dave Shipman will pitch for Chicago, and Jeffrey Wiley will throw for the Keystones.
