I've heard from a few season-ticket holders that the Pirates have sent them 2020 invoices with increased prices, and I've seen some of the invoices myself. The bills are, indeed, higher.
But upon checking with the team Thursday afternoon -- and by that, I mean people there I've long known and trusted -- there actually isn't a price increase.
Sound weird?
OK, stick with me ...
One invoice, sent to me by a subscriber in Sandy Lake, Pa., did show that his total amount due for a partial-season plan in 2020 -- four seats at 20 games each -- had increased from $3,604 this year to $3,724 next year.
