The Pittsburgh Pirates Videos That'll Make You Kind of Love the City
The baseball team ditched CGI ship fights for streetscapes and signature Pittsburgh imagery.
Sports teams' in-house videos tend to err (quite firmly) on the side of corny and over-dramatic. But this season, the Pittsburgh Pirates have rolled out a string of city-centric scoreboard videos that are actually kind of nice to watch.
The team introduces its starting line ups in the style of Saturday Night Live's opening credits, using fast-paced, nighttime city imagery to set the scene as players casually introduce themselves to the camera.
