The Pittsburgh Pirates just shattered their own franchise record with 84 home runs at PNC Park this season—breaking the 2003 mark of 81—and they’re on track to hit over 100 homers at home this year, a stunning turnaround from last season’s cellar-dwelling power stats. The surge is powered by offseason signings Brandon Lowe (14 HR) and Ryan O’Hearn (13 HR), who’ve combined for 32% of the team’s home runs and thrive in PNC’s short right field. Rookie Esmerlyn Valdez and veteran Bryan Reynolds are also lighting up the park, helping the Pirates chase a new all-time home record.
