"It's always good to be home. Special place with special fans. We're hoping for a special season. Obviously, it didn't go the way we wanted on that road trip, but we're able to reset, unpack yesterday, catch up with the families, and do the things that you needed to do to set yourself up for a long season here, and then show up today."

Rome boasts a very strong starting rotation with all five in, or near the BP Top 30, headlined by Cam Caminiti - fresh off an amazing 2025 campaign.

Cade Cavalli pitched three and two-thirds innings, allowing three runs, walking three batters, and striking out five batters, contributing to a 10-4 victory.

The new cream brick building improves on its renderings, featuring a modern and simple four-story box on the Empire Boulevard side, and seven stories with balconies on the Sullivan Place side.

Misiorowski's electric, triple-digit fastball put him on the map when he reached the major leagues last season, earning so much acclaim that he was selected to the National League All-Star team despite having just five career starts under his belt.

First baseman Michael Busch resumes his role as the leadoff batter against righties, followed by Alex Bregman at third base and Ian Happ in left. Pete Crow-Armstrong plays center and bats cleanup, then it's Nico Hoerner at second, Carson Kelly catching, and Moises Ballesteros behind the plate.

Bregman expressed, 'Oh yeah. I feel like when you lose that, it's time to hang them up. For me, every Opening Day, there's still good nerves, good excitement.' This highlights his enduring passion for the game and the excitement he feels at the start of each season.
