Inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1948, Pie Traynor was
the face of Pittsburgh baseball during the twenties and thirties, a
time when the Pirates were a perennial pennant contender. (They
would win the Series in 1925.) Traynor was a line-drive hitter who
drove in runs as effectively with doubles and triples as most of
his peers did launching balls over the fence, and by all accounts
he was a dazzling defender. After his playing days ended, Traynor
stayed in Pittsburgh, managing the Pirates for five years and
working as a popular broadcaster for decades, cementing his place
as one of the most popular athletes ever to play in the Steel City.
