History: The Bucs in blue? You bet! 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 3^rd baseman Bob Elliott were among the Pirates who had standout seasons. Virgin wool jacket with crème leather sleeves and embroidered Pirate patch on chest.
