EVANSTON, Ill. --- Hope springs eternal for the fans of all 30 Major League Baseball teams! It's another opening day!

What storyline will fans of the game want to watch this season? Should the Chicago Cubs go after St. Louis Cardinals star Albert Pujols as a free agent? What is it about the Cubs dugout that seems to lend itself to fights among the players?

Bill Savage, senior lecturer in English, member of the Society for American Baseball Research and die-hard Chicago Cubs fan, discusses these questions and more in this opening day audio Q&A.
