Whether winning world championships or falling into last place,
fielding teams with Hall of Fame players or trotting out bumbling
boys of summer, the Pittsburgh Pirates have thrilled, frustrated,
and fascinated generations of fans since 1876. To date, the Pirates
have won five World Series and have a total of thirty-six players
and managers in the Hall of Fame-including Honus Wagner, Pie
Traynor, Lloyd and Paul Waner, Ralph Kiner, Willie Stargell,
Roberto Clemente, and Bill Mazeroski. The Pirates Reader is a
tribute to the fans, players, and teams who have forged the
franchise's rich history. Richard Peterson has collected the
writing of baseball's greatest storytellers and brings to life the
players, games, and magical moments for this classic and well-loved
team.
