I pity them Pirates! Mr. T rules!

Since the New York Yankees are playing the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field, I thought I'd pull out this old youtube video of Mr. T -- Clubber Lang! BA Barracus! -- throwing the ceremonial first ball and singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" in a Cubs match versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. "Fo it's one, two, three strikes you out at the ole ball game! I pity them Pirates Gggrrrrr!" Hahaha. Super hilarious. Not sure which one is -- Mr. T's or Ozzy Osbourne mumbling his way through the seventh inning stretch. Billie Joe Armstrong (of Green Day) was pretty cool.

And Ed Nuñez is making a strong case for more playing time. Remember what I said about Nuñez possibly pulling a Wally Pipp? And New York even the three-game inter-league series at a game a piece. AJ Burnett got the win to go 7-5 while Mo Rivera pitched for his 17th save.
