The @Pirates expressed their gratitude ahead of today's Mother's Day game ⬇️
Justin Lawrence said it best: "Everything mothers go through doesn't get celebrated enough." 🩷
"Being from Erie, just wanted give them something to take home and have memories for."
Isaac Mattson hosted the Fort LeBoeuf Boys Baseball team in the Pirates dugout during batting practice today, but this one was special. Both Mattson and the Fort LeBoeuf team are from Erie 😌

You are loved. You are enough. The world is a better place because of you.
My heart is with everyone facing their own battles, and with those who stand beside them in support.
Your mental health matters and so do you.
“Team battled all day long, so to be able to come in and help us win the game here at the end, I’m just happy to be a part of it. … Definitely a really cool team win.”
Isaac Mattson with @MearsHannah_ after his 3rd win and the @Pirates first road sweep of the season 👏
"See a need, fill it."
Pirates pitcher Isaac Mattson earned his first MLB win last night. It was an emotional moment on a long journey. After losing his mom to depression, he found purpose in honoring her and strength in facing his own mental health.

“I get chills thinking about that. That's storybook right there.”
