Re: Show off your Pittsburgh Pirates items!
I got ahold of this orange seatback from Three Rivers, with Jay Bell's Pittsburgh number, '3', on it, made a sort of collage, and got Jay to sign and inscribe it for me a few years ago.
No photo immediately available, but I've also got Jay's field jacket from the '94 season.

Re: Show off your Pittsburgh Pirates items!
I was really happy to see the Buccos get a couple veteran bats, even if it were only marginal veteran players like Derrek Lee and Ryan Ludwick, for near nothing in return.
I know the critics will pan these moves (as I do to an extend on ownership's cheapness), but Lee is a MAJOR improvement from Overbay at first base and Ludwick will help solidify an outfield that already has studs like All Star Andrew McCutchen and Neil Walker.
At this point, ANY offense is a good offense for this team! I just fear too little to late, as it came after a rough Philly series.
Thank goodness the Cubs come to town, and I think a series sweep is realistic and can possibly propel them back into first by week's end!

Re: Show off your Pittsburgh Pirates items!
Jay is still one of the nicest human beings on the planet, I think. I got to talk with him again a couple of weeks ago at an Arizona League game, where he was giving Andy Green a hand coaching the rookies, and I hope to see him again tomorrow, though he might be back to coaching his son's baseball team, now that school has started up.

Re: Show off your Pittsburgh Pirates items!
Shipp 96, here goes one. I found this photo of Willie Stargell from 1980 when the City of Alameda held a parade in his honor. It was Willie Stargell Day and the field at my old high school was dedicated in his name.
The cool thing is an 11 year old ME is in this photo. I am the dark haired kid who's head is directly below the young black girl with the beaded braids in her hair. I had never seen this photo before last night when I found it on Photoshelter.com and I was shocked to see my mug in it. Luckily the photographer has this photo for sale so I am going to buy a copy of it. I plan to frame it with the two "Welcome Home Willie" pin-on's that I kept from that day.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]www.alamedasportsproject.com
