PITTSBURGH (93.7 The Fan) As the fight against coronavirus continues, sports are adjusting to a new normal for the time being; holding games without fans in the stands.
While many teams have began covering seats with advertising banners, PNC Bank has added an element to their placement and meaning to their advert.
PNC Bank has places a pair of banners over the left field bleacher seats at PNC Park, and they’ve added a little incentive for Pittsburgh Pirates’ hitters.

August 5, 2020 When a Bucco hits one of the banners with a home run ball, PNC Bank will donate $2,500 to Pirates Charities and send an autographed item to a local frontline worker.
Through their first 11 games, the Pirates have hit 10 home runs and Colin Moran leads the team with five.
