Say hey — it's opening day!
Dick's Sporting Goods
This spot is new for 2013.
It was shot in one take.
A baseball ad like it has never been produced before.
I've never seen a commercial that captures the suspense of a sport better than this one.
As a sports fan, today is my favorite day of the year.
That's because my two favorite baseball teams, the Mets and the Mariners, are both in first place.
You might be saying, "You can't have two favorite baseball teams and be a real fan."
Normally, you'd be right.
But I have an absolutely ironclad reason as to why I have two favorite baseball teams that I love equally, a story I've shared with both Mets and Mariners fans, the reasoning of which has never been refuted by those fans. Not even once.
Luckily for you, I am not going to share this long, boring — but irrefutable — story with you now.
What I will share with you is that, when I was 10, I read the book The Baseball Life of Willie Mays 29 times. Twenty-nine.
Also, I'll share some funny baseball commercials.
Let's go Mets…and M's!
MLB 2K9
This list could have, of course, been all video game ads.
But I just picked out my two favorites (second one below).
This one is just wonderful.

"Apart from you?"
The great commercial actor Jerry Lambert puts Pedroia in his place.
