Billy Crystal led off for the Yankees and struck out. He was pulled for Johnny Damon in the 3rd.
His number (60) will likely not be retired.

"Someone" said that because I think it is very cool that he got to do this, that means I am not a real baseball fan.
I feel real to me.

I'm truly amazed he wasn't beaned. If I were pitching, I'd have been throwing at his head the whole at-bat, and if I were coaching, I'd have called for it on every pitch.

He was facing former 2-time Merry Man sucky pitcher Paul Maholm, who couldn't hit the catcher's mitt if it was on his non-pitching hand, let alone Crystal's noggin'....

Do you like criminal charges and multi-million dollar lawsuits?

It's the Pirates. No one has that kind of money on the Bucco squad.

It's a 'Burgh thing. We get no respect, no respect at all. And maybe that's deserved, but there's something about rubbing our noses in it....
