Pirates Hit So Many Home Runs Last Night Against The Mets That They Ran Out Of Fireworks

Came across this story recently. I am reminded of it:
Rick Sutcliffe gave up back-to-back HRs in Cincinnati. In Cincinnati, they shoot off fireworks after a Red hits a HR. Sutcliffe was pretty intense on the day he pitched. So Eric Davis takes him deep, then Paul O’Neill takes him deep right after that. Sutcliffe is mad, and pitching coach Billy Connors comes out to the mound.

Sutcliffe yells at him “I know I gave up back-to-back home runs, but get your arse back in the dugout and tell Zimmer to settle down too!”

Billy looks at him and said “I know you have everything under control, Rick. I just wanted to give that guy running the fireworks a little more time to reload.”
