Batman Fights for The Pittsburgh Pirates
By Skip Harvey
Beloved former Batman Michael Keaton, who happens to be a die hard Pittsburgh Pirates fan, went to bat for one of their star players last night. (So many puns there) When the Pirates played the Braves in Atlanta a heckling fan decided to go after Andrew McCutchen’s play and Keaton took exception.

McCutchen responded with an RBI double immediately on their way to a 10-8 victory. Apparently Batman saved the day again.

Once a hero, always a hero, I suppose. Too bad he’s not a Royals fan.
