Consumer alert issued for Pittsburgh convenience store after inspector finds rodent droppings
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — A Pittsburgh convenience store was hit with a consumer alert after an inspector found rodent droppings.
The Allegheny County Health Department issued a consumer alert for Oak Hill Market in Pittsburgh’s Terrace Village neighborhood after an inspection on Tuesday. The inspector found more than a dozen violations after receiving a complaint.
According to the report, there were too many rodent droppings to count found in corners and under chip shelves. The inspector noticed a bag of gnawed cheese curls as well as evidence of wall nesting. The facility is treated weekly, but the inspector said the pest services are inadequate.
Several violations were also centered around the slushy machine, which the inspector said wasn’t sanitized.
The report noted several low risk-violations, like dirty restrooms and grease buildup.
The Allegheny County Health Department says high-risk violations, like not sanitizing the slushy machine, may lead directly to food-borne illness or injury.
A consumer alert signifies that a facility is out of compliance with minimum food safety standards and that the conditions may pose a public health risk, the health department explains on its website.
When the consumer alert is removed, the health department’s website will be updated.
Joey Cantillo v. Paul Skenes was never going to be the most fair of pitching battles, but Cleveland did not help themselves at all. Multiple outs in the basepath, poor defensive efforts, and an inability to capitalize with runners in scoring position left Cantillo with the loss.
Joey pitched well enough and was holding his own in the first five innings. Cantillo pitched into the sixth inning, giving up four earned runs on seven hits and three walks. Cantillo struck out seven batters. In the sixth inning, Pittsburgh only had a 2-1 lead, but back to back doubles with no outs forced Vogt to got to Franco Aleman. Aleman gave up two hits and a walk, allowing an inherited run and an earned run to score.
Hunter Gaddis had a solid outing. His only blemish was a walk. Will Dion pitched the eighth and ninth, allowing two runs on two hits and striking out four.
The offense was, in a word, lackluster and looked like there was a chance to get to Skenes early on. In the bottom of the third Gabriel Arias hit a single. Petey Halpin and Steven Kwan hit back-to-back one out singles with Arias scoring on Kwan’s perfect bunt.
A strike-em-out, throw-em-out play with Bazzana at the plate retired the side as Kwan attempted to steal second base. In the bottom of the fourth, Chase DeLauter got on base via a walk and went first to third on Brayan Rocchio’s single to center. Kyle Manzardo flied out to center and resulted in a double play as Chase DeLauter was thrown out at home. Once again a Cleveland runner did not slide into home. While it makes some sense that someone with CDL’s injury history wouldn’t readily slide into a base, it is still frustrating that it happened in back-to-back games.
The Twins come to town for a four game series starting tomorrow. It will be a righty face off as Joe Ryan takes the mound for Minnesota and Tanner Bibee gets the start for Cleveland. First pitch is at 6:40 PM.
