Top of the 3rd

This is the only time I wish I was in the bleachers instead of the press box - it's time for the T-shirt toss, and I love free T-shirts.

More than that, however, I love the way people chase, grab and lunge for these things, as if there is a cluster of $100 bills wrapped in each piece of cloth.

Then again, maybe there is. I never caught one myself. All my T-shirts are store-bought.

Ian Snell's day is done - no runs, no hits and a walk in two innings - as Sean Burnett, a lefty, takes to the McKechnie hill.

The Phillies get to Burnett, scoring a run on double and two singles. But Nyjer Morgan chases down Ryan Howard's line drive to centerfield, and the Pirates lead 2-1.
