Pirates, Orioles renew storied rivalry (Jun 06, 2017)

BALTIMORE — The Baltimore Orioles and Pittsburgh Pirates renew their storied rivalry in a two-game series beginning Tuesday at Camden Yards.

The teams have met twice in the World Series, with the Pirates winning both times in 1971 and 1979. Those games were highlighted by some of the greatest players of all-time, including Brooks Robinson, Frank Robinson, Roberto Clemente and Willie Stargell, just to name a few.

While the current teams don’t exactly have the same type of star power, it should be an intriguing series between a pair of clubs looking to make a run at the postseason.
