Pirates great Andrew McCutchen loves posting about furries, and appears to get some good karma when he does.
The intrigue: Since 2014, McCutchen has periodically posted the word "furries" on his social media when Anthrocon, a furry convention, is in town.
By the numbers: Through 2023, Cutch played 19 home games when Anthrocon was in Pittsburgh.
Yes, but: McCutchen went 1-11 with three walks and six strikeouts during Anthrocon-adjacent home games last year.
What's next: Anthrocon starts today, but the Pirates start a series on the road in Seattle. Hopefully some furry power will come to his bat anyway.
