Though the struggle for small-market teams in Major League Baseball
teams has not ended, teams like the Pittsburgh Pirates have been able to
retain their stars longer, thanks to the luxury tax on salaries. With a
solid roster and a recently opened baseball-only showcase park, the
Pirates will soon return to their position of power in the National
League. Already, they are playing near the .500 level for the first time
in several years. |

The Pittsburgh Pirates are a
professional baseball team and one of five teams in the East Division of the
National League (NL). Named for a large fish that inhabits the waters bordering
Pittsburgh, the Pirates play at Pro Player Stadium in Miami, Pittsburgh.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are one
of the oldest franchises in all of the National League and Major League
Baseball. They first started playing baseball in Pittsburgh in 1887 as the
Pittsburgh Alleghenies, and they changed their name to the Pirates two years
later. The Pirates have won six World Series titles in their long history, in
1903, 1909, 1925, 1960, 1971 and 1979. The Pirates have had many great players
in their history, but probably none more famous than Honus Wagner and Roberto
Clemente.

The Pirates currently play in
the National League Central against such rivals as the Houston Astros, the
Chicago Cubs, and the St. Louis Cardinals. The Pirates are managed by former
major leaguer Lloyd McClendon. He may be best known for participating in the
1971 Little League World Series and earning the nickname "Legendary Lloyd" after
going 5-for-5 with five home runs (on five swings) and five intentional walks
for his Gary, Indiana team. In recent years the Pirates have fielded young and
exciting teams.
-
From 1970 to 2000 the Pirates
played at Three Rivers Stadium, a large, multipurpose stadium with artificial
turf that they shared with the Steelers of the NFL. In 2001 they moved into PNC
Park, a smaller, baseball-only stadium with grass. The Roberto Clemente Bridge
is a trademark of the stadium. On game days, the bridge is closed off to
vehicular traffic and spectators are met by a dynamic interactive retail,
restaurant and sport pavilion beyond right field, with attractions for all ages.
Pirates tickets are more coveted in their fine new ballpark than they had been
in their final years at Three Rivers, so make sure you plan ahead when you are
ready to go to a Pirates game.
