Almost two weeks ago, on Easter Sunday, the 2013 Major League Baseball season began as the Houston Astros defeated the Texas Rangers. After over 50 years in the National League, the Astros played their first game in the American League.

This move has evened up all divisions across the MLB, with each league containing three divisions of five teams. Because of this, almost every day will contain an interleague game (AL team vs. NL team), an occurrence that was limited to a few weeks in July in previous years. With all that being said, the 2013 season is sure to be an exciting and interesting one.
