Happy 29th birthday to a Pittsburgh Pirates legend. Which legend is it you ask. Roberto Clemente? Willie Stargell? Dave Parker? Honus Wagner? Well, I am talking about the ‘Redstone Rocket,’ the one and only Jeff Locke!
Alright, so, you’re probably asking yourself “how is Jeff Locke a Pirate legend?” Well, that is quite simple. Locke has the ability to do something that nearly impossible to do. That ability is the ability to unite the Pirate fan base.
Anyone who is a Pirates’ fan and owns a Twitter account knows how divided this fan base can be.
