The baseball season hasn't even begun, but still fans of the Pittsburgh Pirates are already receiving reality checks, courtesy of the team’s front office.
At the annual Pirates’ Fest that happens every offseason, a Q&A session sparked a conversation of the team's commitment to winning, with team CEO Travis Williams fielding most of the questions of the behalf of the front office and ownership. Team owner Bob Nutting was not in attendance, and his lack of presence was felt when fans in the crowd started a “sell the team chant” as Williams was on the mic.
