First Pitch at PNC Park
PNC Park has been widely regarded as the best ballpark in baseball ever since its first pitch, which is the subject of this panoramic poster. That pitch was thrown by the Pirates' Todd Ritchie to Cincinnati's Barry Larkin at precisely 1:38 on an overcast Monday afternoon in front of a sold out crowd and the Pittsburgh skyline. The clarity of this poster is amazing -- you can see the ball in mid-flight, read the ads on the outfield wall (Budweiser, Heinz, 84 Lumber), and enjoy the stunning views the ballpark is renowned for, as the city's skyline and Robert Clemente Bridge are in perfect focus. The date April 9, 2001 marked the beginning of a new era in Pirates baseball and this poster is a lasting legacy to PNC Park's inaugural Opening Day.
