Pirates fans rip Reds for weak attendance in Cincinnati amid playoff race

Pittsburgh Pirates fans are taking wins wherever they can find them these days, mostly because the Pirates themselves keep coming up empty in that regard. When Pittsburgh entered a three-game series against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ballpark on Tuesday, the Pirates had lost 12 of their last 15, although they were riding a hot two-game winning streak.

Nonetheless, Pirates fans haven’t had much to smile about in 2025, as Pittsburgh extended its playoff drought to ten seasons and counting. Maybe that’s why a notable Pirates fan account on X decided to pick on the Reds and their fan base on Tuesday.
