Friend is a big Pirates fan and passed this along. Hopefully they will have a save chance tonight so we see what PJ song he runs out to

He is a long time PJ fan also. 2011 story that mentions him always putting Pearl Jam on in the clubhouse.

    I have heard plenty of batters use PJ songs but this is the first closer I can think of. It is usually a big event when the music blasts and closer runs out to save the game. And music choice is always what people want to know.

    The only thing bearable about Jason Bay playing for the Mets was his love of PJ. And he finally switched from "The Fixer" to "SOLAT" last year.
