Notes on that no hitter broadcast Announcer talking no hitter after 3. Some would complain about the jinx but that talk is done and dusted. Talking about it is just fine. Saying pirates fans are spoiled always winning the division Saying cmon football isn't taking baseball over. If baseball was pla...

I'm guessing he pulls in a lot of MAGA poon with that get up.

John Steigerwald sighting in the dugout.

Big, feathered hair.

Yep, no hitter.

Game time: 1:50.

Candelaria a no hitter through 6 innings.

I know he had a no hitter and this must be it.

Al Michaels just used the word "truculent."

Bill Buckner injures himself on a check swing and leaves the game. No one comes to check on him and he sits on the bench.

Lee Lacy of the Bucs '79 teams replaces him.

Not the playoffs. 8/9/76.

@DigitalGypsy66. The Candy Man on the mound.

Pirate/Dodger 1976 playoffs on instead. Al Michaels with the call. He sounded much different 50 years ago.

I can boo Steve Garvey all over again.

That was my reaction.

SI (is that still a thing) quotes someone suggesting Metcalf for Pickens and 3 draft picks.

I'm sure that yinzer has never lived elsewhere.

Either the PG or Trib was reporting over the weekend that JuJu is going to be cut by the Pats and the Steelers may be interested.

Playing a Vince McMahon heel:

It's the Libertarian Party national convention. All other presidential candidates were invited to speak. Trump and RFK Jr., for their credit, showed up and spoke, even though both got a hostile reaction. Biden did not. Libertarians aren't conservatives. Both are making a play for the libtard vote s...

Was Candy Man there last night? I was not a Pirates fan in 1979 - still living in MA - but I remember watching that World Series. Man, Pittsburgh in the 70s was something else.

Yes, he was there and looked good.

I was a big fan of his in the 70's and he was one of the best players for five years but he sullied his reputation and career stats with the coke use/scandal.

Speaking of, Dale Berra was unrecognizable at the ceremony today.

Feels good to beat up on the Braves.

The #Barves are screwing me over again. I sadly live in the #Barves TV region, which is broadcast through Bally Sports South. I have YTTV, which doesn't carry Bally. I have MLB.tv (which is an excellent product), but I'm blacked out on that. Bally has a streaming option with a 7 day trial. Great! E...

The Philadelphia Battery Company.

Ford bought them in the early 1960's.

I have a tube Philco radio I used to listen to Pens games on when I smoked in the kitchen in the mid 90's.

When is the last time they lost 2 games in a row where they had a grand slam?

Rough especially with the 2 dynamos pitching

It's (with a loss in both games) happened something like four times in the last 50 years.
