The first thing Andrew McCutchen brought up after gazing at PNC Park's field Saturday was the grass. Even after snow and cold temperatures for most of the week, the surface looked good to him. Perfect for some base hits up the middle.
Some changes are coming to the park. A new scoreboard is being installed. The outfield walls were being rehabbed for new ads.
And perhaps the most important change is that it's home again. McCutchen stayed in Pittsburgh after being traded to the Giants in 2018 and through his five years away. The club and its former face of the franchise reunited earlier this month in what was an almost necessary homecoming.
