What is known today as Pittsburgh's North Side was once known as Allegheny City, and operated as a city independently of Pittsburgh. Allegheny City merged with Pittsburgh under great protest from its citizens.

St Evan Echoes posted:the Pirates should move to the eastern, it sucks that the 3 good nl teams are all in the same conference The Pirates were in the East until 1994. They moved to Central during expansion because the Braves didn't want to (despite being further west). Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud fucked around with this message at 17:13 on Apr 2, 2016 |

With unbalanced scheduling, the Pirates would have won like 110 games if they were in the East last year. Those teams all blow.

I used to love the tenderloin until I made some tender coin Then I met some ladies from Philadelphia We took the highway to the one up the plains to catch some sun That left me with these blisters on my skin Don't know what I was on but I think it grows in New Jersey So I kept on going, going on right through I drove into Atlantic City rain, fell in love then missed the train That could have took me right back home to you I've been high, I've been low I've been yes and I've been oh, hell no I've been rock 'n' roll and disco Won't you save me Pittsburgh? Every day so caffeinated, I wish they were Golden Gated Fillmore couldn't feel 2576 miles away So wrap me up return to sender, let's forget this five year bender Take me to my city by the steelyards I never knew all that I had, now Allegheny don't sound so bad At least they have a hell of a fine Pirates If I could wish upon a star I would hitch a cable car To the place that I can always call my own I've been high, I've been low I've been yes and I've been oh, hell no I've been rock 'n' roll and disco Won't you save me Pittsburgh? I've been up, I've been down I've been so drat lost since you're not around I've been reggae and calypso Won't you save me Pittsburgh? To tell you the truth I miss everything, everything It's a wild, wild beautiful world But there's a wide eyed girl back there And she means everything, everything I've been stop, I've been go I've been yes and I've been oh, hell no I've been rock 'n' roll and disco Won't you save me Pittsburgh? I've been up, I've been down I've been so drat lost since you're not around I've been reggae and calypso Won't you save me Pittsburgh? Save me Pittsburgh Won't you save me Pittsburgh? Save me Pittsburgh Won't you save me Pittsburgh?

ayn rand hand job posted:eh Pirates in the NL Central has nothing to do with geographic clustering, every NL East team except the Braves is closer to Pittsburgh than Chicago is. The pirates were in the NL East for 34 years. The ONLY reason the Pirates are in the NL Central now is that when the Florida Marlins were created in 1993, the Braves were going to be moved to the NL Central but they pitched a fit because they felt that they could develop a rivalry with the Marlins. The Pirates got moved instead. The rivalry never happened and the Pirates have languished in a division they don't belong in ever since.

The pirates were in the NL East for 34 years. actually i thought i mentioned "blame the marlins because they need to be in the east and atlanta's a logical stop on the way for raod trips" in the post, but i guess i edited out also i guess blame the nl for not having the dh, so you can't swap teams freely like in the nhl/nba just imaging someone like david ortiz crushing shots out of pnc all day gorgeous

The day Pittsburgh baseball has a DH is the day I start following another team. Using a Dh completely changes the character of the game. I do not give a gently caress about watching David Ortiz launch blasts out of PNC Park all day. I care about good baseball, on both sides of the ball.
