THE SETUP
It always feels more real when it's here, right?
Well, here happens to be where we are, meaning not only the outright civic spectacle of Andrew McCutchen's return, not only A.J. Burnett and Russell Martin teaming up for the ceremonial first pitch, not only another Blackout in their honor, but also a baseball team that's fairly feeling pretty good about itself after a three-game sweep in Boston. Should be fun.
