The Pittsburgh Pirates blundered yet again, and it wasn’t on the score sheet. The organization came under some fire when Roberto Clemente Jr. took to X, to point out that the club had replaced his father’s name and number in right field, for a drink ad.
The sign for Clemente has been in right field at PNC Park since 2022, and not seeing it there for the home-opening weekend series sparked outrage from fans across the country. The team did announce on Sunday that they would be changing the image back, releasing a statement in regard to this latest misstep.
