The Caitlyn Callahan story has been brought up many times among the Pirates’ front office and coaching staffs.
In November, she was invited to take part of the Pirates’ “Get Better at Baseball” minor-league camp in Bradenton, Fla. She was told the Pirates needed someone to help with video and Rapsodo, duties she had done with the Reds the last two years as a minor-league video and technology intern.
When she got to LECOM Park, she saw minor-league operations assistants doing those jobs.
“It kind of clicked to me,” Callahan said during a Zoom call with local reporters Tuesday.
