Bottom of the 4th

Ronny Paulino hits a tops a foul ball toward the Rays dugout, giving me my first look at a topless fan this spring, who reaches in vain as the ball trickles in the to Tampa Bay dugout.

(No laws being broken here, folks. This fan is a man).

If you're going to take your shirt off at a game, at least do something creative with it. Write your favorite team in ketchup across your chest. Paint a bulls-eye. Have a girl give write her number on your tummy - then again, you're a topless man at a spring training game, approaching a woman you never met before. Get the address of her MySpace page and quit while you're ahead.

Mr. Topless may not be Bob Ross, but he has a heart - after snaring a foul ball, he gives it to a young fan sitting above the Tampa Bay dugout.

The Pirates put two on, but Jack Wilson's fly to left dies at the warning track, and the Pirates trail 4-1.
