Pirates step onto sports betting platform with BetMGM
The Pittsburgh Pirates have formed a partnership with sports betting and digital gaming operator BetMGM that will include branding throughout PNC Park, content on the team’s digital and social platforms and promotions aimed at fans in the stands.
“Our partnership with BetMGM is one that we are extremely proud to announce,” said David Burke, Pirates executive vice president of sales and business development. “We are incredibly excited to partner with such a respected and innovative brand. It allows us the opportunity to provide a unique platform for our fans to engage with Pirates baseball like never before.”
BetMGM signage will be prominently featured on the left field wall and behind home plate.
“BetMGM has seen tremendous success in Pennsylvania since launching in December 2020,” said BetMGM’s Chief Revenue Officer Matt Prevost. “Growing our presence across the state, in partnership with the Pirates, is a top priority and we look forward to providing Pittsburgh’s passionate sports fans unique promotions and benefits only available on BetMGM.”
