Top of the 6th

Jackson seems to have settled in. He hasn't had any real easy innings, but he has kept the Buccos off the scoreboard since the first inning.

Of course, as I write that, Nady lofts a single to left field.

So what does a fan eat or a drink on a day like this? It's not hot, so you're not clamoring for something frozen. And it's not cold, so the there is no need for hot cocoa, either.

I guess it comes down to the ol' reliable - beer. We did spring break in Destin during our senior year of college, and while at a restaurant, a buddy of mine decided to order some gator bites.

"What wine would you recommend with that?" he asked the waitress.
"Beer," she replied.

We were all in deep smit.

The Pirates, meanwhile, fail to build on Nady's single, and still trail 5-2.
