It's overreaction Thursday! It was MLB Opening Day and there were a lot of fun things about the start of the season:

Teams set an Opening Day record by hitting 48 home runs.The Dodgers tied the MLB record for most homers in a game by one team with eight.Astros center fielder George Springer became the first leadoff man in history to hit a home run on three straight Opening Days.

For Tony Conigliaro Jersey Rays and Red Sox fans, however, Thursday was a day to panic a bit. Tampa Bay ace Blake Snell got knocked around for five runs in six innings, with three homers allowed Rafael Devers Jersey , including this three-run dinger to Springer on a hanging curveball.

Third straight HR for !

Houston Astros (@astros)

Snell won the AL Cy Young award last year, but some believe he is a candidate for regre sion after his FIP and ERA did not line up and his BABIP was hilariously low. This is just one game against a potent Astros lineup, though, so a 5-1 lo s isn't anything to panic about yet.

MORE:

Boston fans, on the other hand, absolutely have something about which topanic. Chris Sale just signed a five-year, $145 Eduardo Rodriguez Jersey million extension, but his 92.9 mph average fastball velocity Thursday was the third-lowest in one of his starts since the start of the 2017 season, according to .

This was Opening Day. Pitchers are rested and fresh and have had plenty of time to build up their arms for their first starts of the season. Sale showed the same diminished velocity he displayed at the end of 2018. This is cause for concern.

He allowed seven runs, six hits (three of themhome runs) and two walks in three innings of work in a 12-4 lo s to the Mariners. Thursday was not an encouraging day for Boston and Sale fans.
