PITTSBURGH — If there were ever positive vibes heading into a Pirates game, Saturday’s matchup with the Toronto Blue Jays had them.
The Pirates held a full pregame ceremony to honor their inaugural team Hall of Fame class, with team legends Steve Blass, Bill Mazeroski and Dave Parker on the field, and family members of other famed former Pirates like Roberto Clemente, Willie Stargell, Ralph Kiner and Honus Wagner there too. It all served as a reminder of the years past when the Pirates reached mountaintops on the backs of their all-time best players.
Unfortunately, the 2022 Pirates aren’t on track to reach any mountaintops.
