Pittsburgh Pirates 1945 Authentic Wool & Leather Varsity Jacket Team-StPaul-Saints this is an authentic reproductionRARE REPLICA OF THE ROYAL BLUE PITTSBURGH PIRATES TEAM JACKET History: The Bucs in blue? Better believe it. Pittsburgh did not adopt their now familiar black and gold color scheme until 1948. Manager Frankie Frisch led Pittsburgh to a respectable 82 72 record. 1945 was a war year, so all teams in professional baseball suffered manpower shortages. But pitcher Preacher Roe and third baseman Bob Elliott were among the Pirates who had standout seasons.
