A Visit to PNC Park

On September 8th, I visited PNC Park in Pittsburgh to watch the Chicago Cubs play the Pittsburgh Pirates. The following photo captured the first pitch of the game. You may click within the photo to see a larger version.

The Cubs lead off hitter, Ryan Theriot, started the game with a base hit. Then, the next seven Cubs batters also reached base safely on hits before the ninth batter of the inning, Ryan Dempster, was retired on a sacrifice bunt. The Cubs tied a Major League record with eight consecutive hits to start a game!
