A Pirates Reds Wildcard game? A packed, raucous almost stupefied and spellbound PNC Park. Two dingers for Russell Martin. Shimmy Cueto dropping the ball while being serenaded. A slashing Tony Gwynn-esque oppo single in the shortstop hole by Jay Bruce. A homer from Marlon Byrd? (who was traded by the Mets on Marlon Byrd T-shirt night). Immortal Pirate First Baseman Justin Morneau celebrating the W. Just a simple Yankees fan, video came up in my feed a decade later, totally forgot this game existed . I watched it and smiled to myself that this game actually happened cause it seems to have been created in the laboratory of a mad scientist exclusively for the pleasure of diehard Pirates fans.

Nothing like that had really been done before.

Like who the hell thought that a goalie chant in the middle of a baseball game would work, but it did!

I'm a Reds fan. I wasn't happy that we lost. But if there's a team we're going to lose to, I'd rather it be the Pirates and not the fricking Cardinals or something. Lol. Baseball fans in Pittsburgh have suffered for a long time, including most of my family who are Pirate fans. Just like the Reds, your team is bogged and hindered by cheap and ineffective ownership. I have to admit it was good seeing you guys have that string of success. Plus Pirate fans are good people. I've always been treated with respect attending games at PNC Park.
