Brandon Laird hits beer jackpot with homer in Japan

The drinks are on Brandon Laird -- if you can find your way to the Far East.

The former major leaguer -- who had brief stints with the New York Yankees in 2011 and the Houston Astros in 2012 and 2013 -- now plays for the Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters in Japan. And his home run off a Kirin Beer sign on Tuesday earned him a year's supply of beer and $10,000, according to a report in the Japan Times.
