The Pittsburgh Pirates All-Time All-Stars (Paperback)

Paperback. Lets say youre the manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates, deciding which players should start in Game 7 of the World Series against the American League champs. But instead of choosing from the current roster, you have every player in the teams 131-year history in your clubhouse. Whos your starting pitcher: lefty John Candelaria, steady Bert Blyleven, Cy Young winner Doug Drabek, or crafty Rip Sewell? Who bats cleanuphitting-machine Honus Wagner, home-run champ Ralph Kiner, Willie Pops Stargell, or the hugely talented Barry Bonds? Combining career stats, common sense, and a host of intangibles, veteran sportswriter Dave Finoli imagines an embarrassment of riches and sets the all-time All-Star Pirates lineup for the ages.
