Monday May 28, 1990. Memorial Day at Three Rivers Stadium. I am in the upper deck in Right Field at Three Rivers Stadium. It is raining-and times hard-and chilly and I refuse to take cover. The Pirates are down 5 to 1 to the Dodgers in the bottom of the ninth. The Pirates scored five times in the bottom of the ninth to win. In the rain.
I also remember my first game which I thought was in 1972, but I can not find a box score. I was six years old. The Pirates lost to the Reds 3-2 and I remember Johnny Bench starting the game in right field.
