After the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Cincinnati Reds 6-2, state politicians pandered to Western PA voters voiced their support of the Pittsburgh Pirates on Twitter.

Miracles can happen! The race for the National League pennant brought together two bitter rivals, Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl and his likely successor, Bill Peduto.

In Harrisburg(h), the Corbetts hung the Jolly Roger on the Governor’s Mansion.

Eugene DePasquale, the state’s Auditor General, was also excited for Steel City’s playoff hopes. (We assume that if he does travel to St. Louis, he won’t use state funds to get there).

Pack your bags for St. Louis. #Buctober #BUCN @Pirates — Eugene DePasquale (@DePasqualePA) October 2, 2013

Only one Congressman from the Pittsburgh region tweeted his support of Buctober.

Congrats to the #Pirates for a great win last night! #Buctober continues!

Two of the eight Democratic gubernatorial candidates shared their approval of the Pirates. Both of whom hail from the Philadelphia area. Surprisingly, none of the male candidates running in the Democratic primary declared their support of Pittsburgh’s playoff run.

Congratulations to the @pirates on their big playoff win last night! #Buctober

PoliticsPA Managing Editor Keegan Gibson ears were still ringing Wednesday and his voice gone from jeers of “CUE-TO!”

Awesome game last night. I’m still trying to get my voice back. #LetsGoBucs! pic.twitter.com/HG4GP79xWf

Bonus: Secretary McGinty went the extra mile to show her support for Pittsburgh, by being the only gubernatorial candidate to have her or his picture taken with the giant duck.

I believe that I am the first candidate for governor to appear with the #PittsburghDuck. pic.twitter.com/f0O1e7okr6
