A.J. Pierzynski Admits to Occasional Clubhouse Drinking, Says ‘Sometimes You Just Need a Rally Beer’

Sometimes, the rally cap isn't enough. Neither is the Rally Monkey. And the Rally Squirrel? That's not going to get the job done, either.

Sometimes you just have to turn the to rally beer. 

Or at least that's what White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski revealed when he was a guest on The Dan Patrick Radio Show on Thursday.

Pierzynski, talking about the rumored beer drinking going in the Red Sox clubhouse during games, actually admitted that it's not totally uncommon for him and his teammates to head up to the clubhouse for a brew.

"Sometimes you’re just really struggling and you just say, ‘Hey, you know what, I need something to calm me down and let’s have a beer,'" the catcher said. "A couple of us will do it together, and sometimes it works out.

"It's just, sometimes you just need a rally beer. If you’re in extra innings and you’re in about the 15th inning and you really need to get going again, that sometimes works for you."
