It's been a long cold winter here in Philadelphia. In honor of Sunday and Monday, the greatest days of the year, here are some Opening Day features we have here at B-R:

• 100 Years of Franchise Opening-Day Starters (1914-2013)
• Batting and pitching game finders can be set to search "In team's first x games":
  • Example 1: Most HR in team's 1st game of the season (1919-2010)
  • Example 2: Highest Game Score in team's 1st game of the season (1919-2010)
• Use streak finders to look for the longest streaks to open the season:
  • Example 1: Most consecutive games with a hit to start the season (2000-09)
  • Example 2: Most consecutive wins by a pitcher to start the season (1980-89)
• Game Previews
• Our Mobile Site is perfect for looking up stats at the game, in a restaurant, or on your couch. We even have every box score since 1914 available in an easy to use mobile format.

Give them a try, and enjoy baseball's return.
