Pirates v Giants, PNC Park, 5/11-12/2018

Friday, 5/11

This was a difficult and unproductive series, the crowds have been low, but all of Pittsburgh came back to see Andrew Mccutchen.

On the way in a ball hit off of the John Deere cart and into the stands which I caught on the deflection for Ball #1.

Heberto Andrade Ball #2.

Found Ball on the Clemente Wall for Ball #3.

Saturday, 5/12

Another rain out of practice, although the Pirates could have gotten their portion of on field bp in given the late arrival of rain.  Pittsburgh’s grounds crew would not be having any of that.

I raced over to the foul territory along the RF foul line in hopes of finding a SF commemorative, I had seen earlier what looked like Giants players throwing when looking through the gates.  My plan was to find a commemorative that was either over thrown or ditched into the seats after the Giants throwing session.  It took a couple rounds of looking but I did find Ball #1 and the only one of the day.  Disappointingly, it was a regular baseball.
