As a way to help raise funds for local breast cancer support organization, A Glimmer of Hope, the Pirates and Pirates Charities hosted the 15th annual Pitch for Hope women’s baseball clinic on Sunday, May 31 at PNC Park. Clinic participants rotated through stations on the field and received instruction from Pirates coaching staff including Don Kelly, Tarrik Borck, Tony Beasley, Matt Hague, Shawn Bowman, Chris Truby, Raul Hernandez, and Ryan Jackson. Following the clinic, participants enjoyed brunch at the ballpark where they spent quality time bonding and supporting those among the group who have been impacted by breast cancer. Participants were invited back onto the field later that afternoon for a special pregame moment before the Pirates vs. Twins matchup. All proceeds from the event benefit A Glimmer of Hope and the critically important work that they do in our community to fight against breast cancer.
