2026 - Report #1
The 2026 MLB season opened up today and the buzz around the world kept growing as more international teams field baseball teams.
The highlight of the day was 5 time Cy Young award winner Noodles pitching a masterful 1 hit shutout at home against the Barcelona Magicians. Hahn who won 25 games in 2025, fanned 12 and only allowed a first inning single to Harmon Killebrew who was making his Barclona debut after 7 seasons with the Minnesota Twins. Killer said this "Utah eliminated Minnesota last year at the same ballpark, so I sign 7000 miles away with a team from Spain and still open up in Salt Lake and have to see that pitcher again... not fun" Utah got 2 hits and 2 RBI's from Matt Chapman and 2 hits from Yoan Moncada in his Utah debut.
The Branson Jackals got bad news on pitcher Cal Quantrill who has been out a while and now will be out another 6 months with his torn UCL. Branson was counting on Quantrill to be in the rotation by late April and now his season is lost again.
