On this date in 1989, Pirates broadcaster Jim Rooker made that promise after Pittsburgh scored 10 runs in the 1st inning.
The Pirates lost 15-11.
And Rooker actually walked the 300+ miles back to Pittsburgh.

Every time I’m watching them when they pan up to the press box to show Jonesy and Brière they are laughing, enjoying themselves, and staying positive about what they’re trying to accomplish with this team.
