WTRF in Ohio tweeted yesterday that Pennsylvania lawmakers have called for the audit for both the Pirates and Philadelphia Phillies, as it is linked to state funding.

Lawmakers say in the early 2000s, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania contributed $320 million to build four stadiums in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. Among those were PNC Park and Citizens Bank Park.
