Nov. 26, 1925: Pittsburgh’s newly created National Hockey League team, the Pirates (aka Yellow Jackets) play their first game, a 2-1 victory on the road against the Boston Bruins. Harold Darragh scores the deciding goal.

Thanks to Dan Potash for pointing out that tonight is the 100-year anniversary of the first NHL game by a Pittsburgh team as the Pirates won at Boston, 2-1, on 11/26/1925. Goals by Lionel Conacher and Harold Darragh.

Well, I finally broke down and did a Yinzer tree in the Mancave / office.

All local Pittsburgh Penguins, Pirates, Steelers ornaments with some WVU and other local flavor as well.

I liked it, n’at! It’s a growing work in progress. #HereWeGo #LetsGoPens #LetsGoBucs #HailWV

PS: Need #LCFC ones!

"I know I'm not a Cy Young Award pitcher so I'm not going to go out there and pitch a shutout," Bob Walk (HBD 🎂) said.

"My goal is to throw six or seven good innings and hopefully when I leave, my team will have a chance to win the game."

It’s the holidays, and that means plenty of folks out there driving around like them Duke boys.

Stay safe. 🚗

Looking for the 1995 Pittsburgh one? Now you don't have to go to the non-circulating area of the Main Carnegie Library's PA Department to find it. Pull it up in your own home!

Doug Drabek looked so much like the 1987-1996 Pittsburgh Pirates logo, an artist actually used him as inspiration for this Giant Eagle advertisement:

Since 1961 expansion, the only big leaguer with more than 40 triples and fewer than 20 steals is Willie Stargell.

(He had 55 triples and 17 stolen bases.)

Most copies probably ended up in the East River or some landfill , along with all those other ‘52 Topps high number cards. It’s not like he’s a well-remembered coach (@brucemcclurenh.com may disagree), but that’s a great looking piece of cardboard.

Sadly, the main statistic many of us remember him for is two wives.
Happy Birthday Al Martin. He hit .305 with 20 HRs, 59 RBIs, and 20 stolen bases for the 1992 #Bisons. Hit .276 with 132 HRs and 485 RBIs in 11 major-league seasons. #Buffalo
