This track is overplayed for baseball but it’s opening day — so it’s perfect.

It’s opening day and 3 Astros things returns from its winter slumber and of course all three things are about opening day.

The official Astros hashtag is #Astros

Good Morning America announced over the weekend with Major League Baseball announced the official hashtags their corresponding emojis for all 30 teams.

Now every tweet posted with #Astros will have an Astro logo. Which is something?
