Why you should come to Meiklejohn Stadium

Okay. I get it. The stadium is somewhat far. For whatever ridiculous reason, you may not even like baseball. But it's gonna be seventy degrees and, if there was ever a day to suck it up and enjoy our national past time, it's tomorrow at three for our home opener against Temple.

Besides the weather, it should be a good game. At 5-10, Temple's is going be an even matchup for the Quakers. And, at 3-5, the Red and Blue are actually ranked second in the Ivy League, so, while they're record may not show it, they aren't really a bad team. Plus, there's a promising freshman pitching - Connor Bernhard - in his fourth start of his career.

So pack your soda (or whatever other cold, enjoyable, mid-day beverage that you may discretely enjoy) and walk down to Palestra. Then go past the Palestra onto the bridge on the right. Then take that path for another quarter mile.

Shut up. You need the exercise.

And check out this promotional video the Penn baseball team made; it's actually incredibly well-done.
