Chevron STEM Zone at PNC Park

Children and families can explore activities relating to the mechanics, techniques, equipment and fun of the great American pastime!

about

This interactive area opened in 2018 at PNC Park, home of the Pittsburgh Pirates, to invite children and families to learn vital skills in an enjoyable, hands-on way when they attend baseball games.

Displays and interactive experiences that communicate science, technology, engineering and math principles related to the sport include a vertical scale that allows visitors to explore how body position affects the height of a jump and interactive graphics that let visitors measure and compare distances on a baseball diamond.

The exhibit also features a video wall that showcases how baseballs, gloves and bats are manufactured; a batting cage that utilizes a shortened bat and VR technology to give visitors a 360-degree view of the ballpark as they swing for the fences; and a TV and radio broadcasters’ booth offer a role play experience while allowing kids to call the games in real time.
