Yu Darvish came so close to starting off the 2013 season perfectly.
The Texas Rangers' right hander struck out 14 batters in 8 2/3 innings before yielding a ground ball up the middle to Houston Astros shortstop Marwin Gonzalez. He threw 111 pitches 78 for strikes before manager Ron Washington pulled him. The Rangers won 7 0.
Obviously this caused a ruckus on Twitter. Everyone had their Yu puns ready to go and they certainly didn't disappoint.
