For major league baseball, Opening Day means so much more to the players than to the public.

Although everyone enjoys watching the first game of the regular season, this day gives the players an idea of how the rest of their season may go.

This year, opening day will take place on March 28, 2019. This is the earliest Opening Day ever to take place in the history of major league baseball.

Usually, opening day takes place during the first week of April.

All thirty teams will be playing on March 28, with the Orioles against the Yankees as well as the Mets against the Nationals leading the day off at 1:05 pm.
