  • The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family
    Chapter One The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family The 1980–1985 Seasons ♦◊♦ As over forty-four thousand Pirates fans headed to Three Rivers Sta- dium for the home opener of the 1980 season, they had every reason to feel optimistic about the Pirates and Pittsburgh sports in general. In the 1970s, their Pirates had captured six divisional titles, two National League pennants, and two World Series championships. Their Steelers, after decades of futility, had won four Super Bowls in the 1970s, while the University of Pittsburgh Panthers led by Heisman Trophy winner Tony Dorsett added to the excitement by winning a collegiate national championship in football. There was no reason for Pittsburgh sports fans to doubt that the 1980s would bring even more titles to the City of Champions. After the “We Are Family” Pirates, led by Willie Stargell, won the 1979 World Series, the ballclub’s goals for 1980 were “Two in a Row and Two Million Fans.”1 If the Pirates repeated as World Series champions, it would mark the first time that a Pirates team had accomplished that feat in franchise history. If two million fans came out to Three Rivers Stadium to see the Pirates win back-to-back World Series titles, it would 3 © 2017 University of Pittsburgh Press.

The offseason after the 1979 World Series victory was a whirlwind of awards and honors, highlighted by World Series Most Valuable Player (MVP) Willie Stargell and Super Bowl MVP Terry Bradshaw of the Steelers appearing on the cover of the December 24, 1979, Sports Illustrated as corecipients of the magazine’s Sportsman of the Year Award.

    Repeal of Baseball's Longstanding Antitrust Exemption: Did Congress Strike out Again? INTRODUCrION "Baseball is everybody's business."' We have just witnessed the conclusion of perhaps the greatest baseball season in the history of the game. Not one, but two men broke the "unbreakable" record of sixty-one home-runs set by New York Yankee great Roger Maris in 1961;2 four men hit over fifty home-runs, a number that had only been surpassed fifteen times in the past fifty-six years,3 while thirty-three players hit over thirty home runs;4 Barry Bonds became the only player to record 400 home-runs and 400 stolen bases in a career;5 and Alex Rodriguez, a twenty-three-year-old shortstop, joined Bonds and Jose Canseco as one of only three men to have recorded forty home-runs and forty stolen bases in a 6 single season. This was not only an offensive explosion either. A twenty- year-old struck out twenty batters in a game, the record for a nine inning 7 game; a perfect game was pitched;' and Roger Clemens of the Toronto Blue Jays won his unprecedented fifth Cy Young award.9 Also, the Yankees won 1.

  • Greetings! Another School Year Has
    Greetings! Another school year has come to a close for Safe At Home and our 13,000 students. It's been a busy - and sometimes difficult - spring. Our students and our leadership have been front and center as our country deals with some difficult conversations on trauma and violence. Check out some of our critical work from the past few months at Safe At Home. Celebrations in Cincinnati On May 24, we celebrated the end of our first year of providing trauma support and awareness to children in Cincinnati, Ohio. Joe Torre made a special appearance to share his story and answer questions from peer leaders, who kicked off the ceremony with their own testimonials and a short skit. Their testimonials were focused on how their school community has changed for the better with access to our safe room, Margaret's Place. "Students know they can come to Margaret's Place and have someone they can talk to," said eighth grader Morgan. "It's nice having that, because a lot of schools don't have a dedicated space where kids can go. Those kids may not know where to go." Check out a full recap on our website, and be sure to watch a TV segment that featuring Ali and Joe Torre and the impact of our vital work in Cincinnati on WKRC. Spring awareness campaigns Throughout the spring, all of our Margaret's Place school locations lead their own, unique awareness campaigns. This annual tradition gives our peer leaders the chance to showcase what they've learned throughout the year.
