North Shore Drive podcast - Pittsburgh Steelers, Pirates, Penguins and more

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey gives his thoughts on Heather Lyke's future as Pitt athletic director following the extension for her colleague Pat Kraft at Penn State. How important is it for the Panthers to hold onto Lyke, who's presided over growth for numerous programs including football under Pat Narduzzi and basketball under Jeff Capel? And if she stays, how many more resources does she deserve to keep moving things in the right direction.

Later, Jason reacts to the Pirates' blowout loss to the Chicago Cubs on Monday night at PNC Park. And questions whether GM Ben Cherington and manager Derek Shelton are handling the position change for Oneil Cruz the right way.
