Pittsburgh Crawfords...

Mark, DJ, Hillary & I headed out to the Pirates game..it was Pittsburgh Crawfords/Homestead Grays night (old team/negro league). I'm such a sucker for all that old baseball stuff that Ken Burn's baseball documentary has been moved to the top of our netflix queue.



Say what you will about Pittsburgh, but DANG they have a pretty field.


We're taking cover under the overhang as the rain comes down.


Game called at the 5th inning, with the Mets winning...but, we did get to see our FIRST pirate run. Ever. Yeah. poor pirates...I literally feel sorry for them. No one likes to lose. All the time. 18 year losing streak.that's gotta sting.

Dude, it's so sad! I believe I was there during their last winning season. That is just super sad! :(
