    A large contingent of Chicago Cubs fans crashed opening day in Miami, and one pitch into the major league season, Ian Happhad them on their feet to celebrate while Marlins fans stewed.

    An inning later, Anthony Rizzo earned a standing ovation from the entire stadium, the cheers mixed with tears.

    Happ hit a leadoff homer, and Rizzo also homered to make his emotional homecoming even more memorable, leading the Cubs past Derek Jeter's Marlins 8-4 Thursday.
