Pizza and pierogis are on the line when the Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago Cubs vie for a spot in the National League Division Series.
US senators Pat Toomey and Mark Kirk have placed a friendly bet on Wednesday’s Wild Card game at PNC Park.
If the Pirates win Kirk will be handing over Lou Malnati’s deep dish pizza and some 312 beer. If the Cubs win, Toomey must give up Pierogi Plus from McKees Rocks and Iron City Beer.
Toomey says he’s confident Buc Nation will be raising the Jolly Roger Wednesday night, but Kirk is confident Jake Arrieta can rattle the Pirates again.
You can hear the game on 1490 WESB Wednesday night.
