You might hear chatter at the bleacher seats, but not baseball chatter just yet. And temperatures are too cold to get water from the fountain. But, not to worry, the backfield fences are holding up just fine and they will be there for you come spring.
The melting overflow has started to cover the creek, some water flowing over, some seeping upward from a crack in the ice. 
In spite of the overflow, the 'curiosity' is still visible on top of the remaining ice.
Near the far east bridge over the creek, on the creek, in the middle of the creek, is a curious site. Where did it come from? Who put it there? Why is it there? There must be a story behind it, but I don't know what it is. It is fun to imagine.
