2009 Dontrelle Willis is placed on the 15-day disabled list by the Tigers. According to the 27-year-old southpaw, unsuccessful since winning 22 games with the Marlins in 2003, he has been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, believed by doctors to be easily treatable.
2018 At Miami, Cubs' leadoff hitter Ian Happ goes deep on the season's first pitch, homering to right field off a Jose Urena fastball in the team's 8-4 victory over the Marlins. The 23-year-old center fielder, playing in his first Opening Day contest, becomes the first player to accomplish the feat since Red Sox's Dwight Evans took Tiger right-hander Jack Morris deep on the initial delivery of the 1986 campaign.
