For many years PNC Park has been the home of the struggling Pittsburgh Pirates and I've witnesses more than a few losses here during that time. Fortunately, it seems like things are finally changing this year (knock on wood repeatedly). Unfortunately, my trip to the city this week just happened to be during the All-Star break, so I was not able to catch a game at this beautiful ballpark. Regardless, I still took the subway over to the stadium to walk around and take some pictures.
With the Pittsburgh skyline visible over the outfield and great seating and food vendors throughout, it's no wonder this is considered one of the premiere ballparks in the Major League. It was a much needed and serious upgrade from the old Three Rivers Stadium (RIP), which hosted both the Pirates and the Steelers for decades.
Don't want to worry about parking? Then take the subway to the new, nearby North Side terminal or walk across the Roberto Clemente bridge, which is sometimes only open to foot traffic during game day.
So, now that the NL handily won the All-Star game, maybe PNC Park can host the World Series this year? Let's go Bucs!!!
