The Pirates in the 70s and 80s always seemed to manage to put together terrific outfields. Dave Parker/Al Oliver/Richie Zisk, and then Omar Moreno and Bill Robinson/Mike Easler joined Parker for the World Series team in '79. They also had Lee Lacy, one of the finest pinch hitting outfielders of the era.
Oh yeah, Klyd. I remember those Pirate teams VERY well.
I saw Pops hit an absolute moonshot off Seaver when I was still in high school. And coincidentally, Stargell hit the first ever home run at Shea back in '64. Very classy guy.
"When I played, there were 600 baseball players, and 599 of them loved Willie Stargell. He's the only guy I could have said that about. He never made anybody look bad and he never said anything bad about anybody." ------- Joe Morgan
