BASEBALL IS BACK

THE CUBS AND CARDINALS KICK OFF THE 2015 BASEBALL SEASON SPENSER DAVIS | @DAVIS_SPENSER

T

he Chicago Cubs will host Major League Ba s e b a l l’s O p e n i n g Night this Sunday, sparking an age-old rivalry with the St. Louis Cardinals that has sputtered in recent years.

For the first time since 2003, it’s the Cubs that enter a regular season with more hype than the Cardinals.

I f you re ca l l , 2 0 0 3 wa s the year of the infamous Steve Bartman play that cost Chicago a chance at a pennant.

Since the 2003 post-season, the Cardinals have won six division titles, four National League pennants and two World Series championships. The Cubs have won nothing.

The Cubs won’t be winning the NL Central in 2015 — they’re still missing the necessary experience and bullpen to do that. But credit Major League Baseball for creating an opportunity for a sneak peek at a potential “passing of the torch” in the National League.

While the Cardinals don’t appear to be going anywhere for at least a couple of years, the Cubs have a core of players that are poised to make a huge impact.

First baseman Anthony Rizzo and shortstop Starlin Castro are both 25 years old and established all-stars but they’re considered elderly when you look at the rest of the Cubs lineup.

Third baseman Kris Bryant and outfielder Jorge Soler are both 23 years old and they possess as much raw power

as anyone in the major leagues. Javier Baez needs to get his average up, but he also has tremendous power at the second base position.

I haven’t even mentioned the likes of catcher Kyle Schwarber and shortstop Addison Russell, who are both under the age of 22.

But it’s not just young stars that have people excited about the Cubs.

General manager Theo Epstein, who built the team that broke the curse for the Boston Red Sox in 2004, went out and signed ace starting pitcher Jon Lester in the off season as well as a highly respected manager in Joe Maddon.

Meanwhile, St. Louis projects once again as the favorite in the NL Central and a legitimate contender for a pennant (it is an odd year, after all). But the Cardinals’ core o f Ya d i e r Molina, A d a m Wainwright and Matt Holliday is aging. All three are on the wrong side of 30 and have had durability concerns in the past.

This game is only one of 162 in the regular season, but it feels like it could symbolize something much more than that.

St. Louis could very well stick around for five or ten more seasons, rotating out core players as they age just as they have done since the Tony LaRussa era began.

Jason Heyward, Kolten Wong and Michael Wacha are all

between the ages of 23 and 25, after all.

Maybe this game isn’t a changing of the guard, but rather the ignition of a rivalry that used to transcend sports — it was once heralded among the likes of ‘YankeesRed Sox’ and ‘Duke-North Carolina.’

Sunday night might represent a changing of the guard in the National League, or it might not. It might symbolize the beginning of several LENNY IGNELZI/AP PHOTO playoff matchups between In this March, 2015, file photo, Chicago Cubs’ Kris Bryant signs autographs prior to start of a spring traintwo of baseball’s iconic fran- ing exhibition baseball game against the San Diego Padres in Peoria, Ariz. chises, or it might not. Only time will tell.

But at the ver y least, it’s Cubs vs. Cardinals, it’s Wainwright vs. Lester and it’s Wrigley Field under the lights. It’s Opening Night.

EGG DYING

101

KATELYN GRIFFITH | @KATELYN_BROOKE

E

aster egg dying, it’s a holiday tradition that many households partake in. Often, it’s a competition between siblings on who could make the coolest design or the most intense color. While this may be a childhood memory, who’s to say we can’t pick it up again as young adults, and with some twists?

Instead of the basic dip-dye and allin-one kits here are a few ways to amp up your easter egg dying skills.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED: - Large pot with a lid - Measuring spoons - One dozen eggs - Food coloring OR egg dying kit (I recommend PAAS Color Cups. $2.50 at Target)

EGG PREP In a large pot filled with cold water, place eggs so that they are in a single layer and not on top of one another. Make sure the water covers the eggs by one inch or more.

More is better due to the evaporation during boiling.

Heat on high and let the water come to a boil. Turn off the heat, cover the pot and let sit for 10-13 minutes.

Strain water out and replenish with cold water.

VIVACIOUS AND VIBRANT

}

- White/clear vinegar - Rubber bands - Rubber cement - Fine-point black Sharpies

Want the bold, neon color advertised on the egg dying kits you see in store? Using one cup per color, add three tablespoons of white vinegar to each cup and then add tablets that come in the kits or two teaspoons of food coloring. Side note: if you are using food coloring be aware you will have to measure out primary colors for accurate secondary colors. After the colors are mixed with the vinegar, fill the cup with water but be sure to leave an inch or more from the rim. This is done so that when you lower the egg into the cup, it does not overflow. Stir the contents of the cup and begin dying.

EASTER SERVICES

ADDITIONAL EXCITEMENT

OMBRE EGG-FECT

PAINT SPLATTER EGG-FECT

1. Using an egg dipper that comes in most kits, or other instrument, lower the egg into the cup until fully submerged.

2. After five seconds raise egg out of the dye until one third is appear ing out of the solution.

3. Let 15 seconds go by and raise the egg until two thirds is above the solution.

4. Keep the bottom third of the egg remain in the liquid for a final 20 seconds.

5. Remove the egg and review. If not please with the turnout, reinsert the egg and follow steps 1-4 again.

1. Take rubber cement and drizzle it over the egg and let dry.

2. Once the rubber cement is dry lower into your color of choice and check until pleased with the coloration.

3. Remove from cup, let dry, and peel off rubber cement.

Tip: to get more dimension, repeat steps 1-3, adding more color. Just be sure to do the lightest color first and work darker for a better turnout.

TYE-DYE EGG-FECT

ZENTANGLE EGG-FECT

1. Just like tye-dying a t-shirt, wrap rubber bands snug around the egg.

2. Lower the egg into the cup of desired colored, checking frequently until pleased with pigment.

3. Let dry before removing rubber bands to prevent smearing Tip: Use different size rubber bands on a single egg to get more texture in the pattern.

1. With a fine-point black Sharpie, draw a continuous curving line all around shell of the egg, eventually connecting the endpoints.

2. Then within the lines and curves, create abstract patterns.

Tip: If in need of inspiration of patterns, google zentangle patterns and see what others have come up with. There is no wrong way to doodle, which is essentially what zentangle is.

3. Continue with your doodles until pleased.
