PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — College football in the Presidents Athletic Conference is coming back to KDKA+ and CBS News Pittsburgh this fall.
Starting on September 7, KDKA+ will air nine PAC football games and a to-be-determined bowl game with the production of the broadcasts managed by JRM Video Production, for a second straight year.
In addition to airing on KDKA+, the games will also be simulcasted on KDKA.com and the CBS News Pittsburgh streaming service, which can be accessed for free on numerous platforms.
“Football is part of the rich history of Southwestern Pennsylvania,” said KDKA-TV president and general manager Chris Cotugno. “Because it is a common thread that connects our communities, it is important that we broadcast local high school and college games every weekend, providing our viewers with an opportunity to see games they might not otherwise have a chance to see.”
The games will air most Saturdays from September 7 through November 23 with kickoff times to be determined.
The schedule of games to be broadcast is as follows:
- 9/7 — Geneva vs. Grove City

Pirates Add Pitcher From Mets

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Pirates chose to pick up another left-handed pitcher for their bullpen, acquiring Josh Walker of the New York Mets, according to Robert Murray of FanSided.

Walker pitched the last two seasons with the Mets, with a 6.45 ERA in 22.1 innings in 24 appearances out of the bullpen. He pitched in 10 games this season, with a 5.11 ERA in 12.1 innings of work, with 13 hits, seven earned runs, six walks to 11 strikeouts and a .277 opposing batting average.
He had a better time in Triple-A with the Syracuse Mets this season, with a 2.83 ERA in 25 appearances and 28.2 innings of work, along with 39 strikeouts and a 1.29 WHIP.
The Mets recently designated Walker for assignment, after they landed right-handed pitcher Ryne Stanek from the Seattle Mariners for minor leaguer Rhylan Thomas.
Pittsburgh has looked to add left-handed releivers, as they also made a trade to acquire Colorado Rockies left-handed pitcher Jalen Beeks, sending minor league left-handed pitcher Luis Peralta in exchange.
The Pirates only had Aroldis Champman as their other southpaw in the bullpen prior to acquiring Beeks and Walker. They shut down Ryan Borucki, the other left-handed reliever, for carpal tunnel syndrome, on May 1 and transferred him to the 60-day injured list on June 6.
Pittsburgh has made one other trade so far, with right-handed pitcher Quinn Priester going to the Boston Red Sox for minor league infielder Nick Yorke.
The MLB Trade Deadline is July 30, meaning that the Pirates have short time to add any additional players to their roster. They are currently 54-52 and two games out of the last wild card spot, so more additions would not come as surprising.
