US President Barack Obama opened the 2010 Major League Baseball season on Monday with a ceremonial first pitch that even the athletic commander-in-chief acknowledged was a little bit off target.

The Miami Marlins, who opened their season on Friday in Philadelphia, were scheduled to return home on Sunday ahead of their scheduled Monday home opener but put off traveling after a number of their players tested positive for the virus.
