A Pirates home run ended up being possibly more highlight-worthy for what it did to an unlucky fan’s beer than the actual effect it had on the scoreboard.
A fan carefully watching the ball come toward her section did her best to try to catch it — something that her beer cup managed to do for her.
Due to the force of the ball and probably the fan’s surprise, the beer cup exploded and fell out of her hands. Which means unless someone had the heart to make sure she got the ball back, she was souvenir and beer-less with beer-soaked clothing.
Which at least makes for a good story.
