PITTSBURGH — It may have been tough to see through the cloudy haze that enveloped Pittsburgh throughout the day on Wednesday and well into the night. But if you squinted hard enough, peering through the smoke, you saw that productive offense had returned to the North Shore.
And, no, the Steelers weren’t staging any sort of summer workouts.
As the Pirates looked to follow their offensive outburst from 24 hours prior — nine runs scored during a rout of the San Diego Padres — it was an amalgamation of players who once again put a hand into the pile during Pittsburgh’s 7-1 victory at PNC Park.
