The Pittsburgh Pirates and their ridiculously-low $35 million payroll open the 2010 regular season at PNC Park today against Joe Torre, Manny Ramirez, Mr. Rihanna (Matt Kemp, shown below grabbing her butt) and the L.A. Dodgers at 1:35 p.m.
Your pitching matchup is Vincente Padilla (12-6, 4.46 in 2009) against Zach Duke (11-16, 4.06). Win today and we're one step closer to that 81-win euphoria. [PG]
Jamie and Ali McMutrie, the two Ben Avon women who heroically rescued 53 children from the Port-Au Prince Haiti Orphanage, will be throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at PNC today. Hopefully they'll refrain from a Michael Keaton-esque rant on the state of the franchise. [PittsburghPirates.com, PG]
