Major league baseball's offseason is typically filled with news from the big market teams, such as the trade of Roy Halladay to the Phillies. However the Pittsburgh Pirates, a small market club, are looking to make a splash themselves, and have announced that they acquired a brand new hot dog machine for their concession stand.
"It was about time that we got a new hot dog machine," said a team spokesman. "We never knew what was going to happen with the old one. Sometimes we'd burn the hot dogs, sometimes we'd way undercook them. It was a total crapshoot."
The team says with their new hot dog machine, they will be able to cook up to twenty hot dogs at one time. This is a considerable upgrade from the four hot dog capacity of their old cooker, which was actually a beat up George Foreman grill found at a Pittsburgh area rummage sale.
"I can't say enough how long we've wanted to upgrade in this area," said the spokesman. "Our fans will now be able to enjoy a consistently delicious hot dog, without the risk of it being severely over or undercooked. We as an organization think our fans will view this as one of the top five or six moves we've made in the past decade or so."
