Good morning. It is August 17th, 2013.
With last night's win, the Pirates are 72-49. Since 1992, the Pirates failed to win 72 games in the following seasons*: 1994, 1995, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010.
There are no new additions to the list today, and so there are no new memories of past seasons gone by to share. That's only 11 seasons crossed off the list. There's more work to be done.
*The strike shortened 1994 and 1995. The '94 Pirates were on pace for 75 wins, but the '95 Pirates were terrible and only on pace for 65 wins.
