They never even threw a pitch.

I had a chance to see PNC Park in person on Sunday afternoon. The Pirates were scheduled to play the Reds that day, but of course steady rain and lightning cancelled the game. It was the only rainout in the Majors over the weekend and I was there to see it.

The stadium is nice, we had great seats, and the city of Pittsburgh isn’t nearly as much of an armpit as I have heard. My buddy Bert and I made it from the Steel City to the Minnesota border in less than 11 hours. So, a stop in Toledo to see Disstraktor was out of the question.

But, I would love to make that trip again soon because the drive was pretty easy and I really kind of like paying the tolls in Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio.
