Braves vs Pirates: Fun Facts and Rivalry

Here are some fried facts (fun, crispy, and maybe a little spicy) about the Atlanta Braves vs. Pittsburgh Pirates rivalry and history:

**1. ** The Original NL Rivalry

Both teams are founding members of the National League (1876). The Braves started as the Boston Red Stockings, while the Pirates joined in 1887 (originally the Alleghenys).

**2. ** Braves’ Pittsburgh Pit Stop

The Braves played in Pittsburgh for part of 1943 due to WWII travel restrictions, making them temporary 'road neighbors.'

**3. ** Pirates’ Wild 1992 NLCS Win Over Braves

The Pirates blew a 2-0 series lead in the 1992 NLCS against the Braves. Atlanta won Game 7 in dramatic fashion when Francisco Cabrera’s pinch-hit single scored Sid Bream (famously slow) in a walk-off.

**4. ** Hank Aaron’s Near-Trade to Pittsburgh

Before his historic career, the Braves almost traded Hank Aaron to the Pirates in 1954. Pittsburgh backed out, and Aaron became a Braves legend.

**5. ** The 'We Are Family' Pirates vs. Braves

The 1979 Pirates (famously led by Willie Stargell) beat the Braves in the NLCS before winning the World Series. Their anthem? 'We Are Family' by Sister Sledge.

**6. ** Braves’ 13-Run Inning vs. Pirates (2023)

In 2023, the Braves set a franchise record by scoring 13 runs in one inning against the Pirates—including three HRs in a row (Olson, Riley, Rosario).

**7. ** Pirates’ No-Hitter vs. Braves (1970)

Pirates pitcher Dock Ellis threw a no-hitter against the Braves in 1970—while allegedly tripping on LSD.

**8. ** Andrew McCutchen’s Braves Revenge

Former Pirates MVP Andrew McCutchen signed with the Braves in 2024—only to later join the Pirates again in 2023, making it a full-circle moment.

**9. ** The Sid Bream Slide Curse?

After the 1992 NLCS loss, the Pirates suffered 20 straight losing seasons (1993-2012), while the Braves dominated the NL East.

**10. ** Oddest Game? The 20-Inning Marathon (2011)

In 2011, the Pirates beat the Braves 4-3 in 19 innings—only for MLB to later rule it was actually 20 innings due to a scoring error.

Bonus Fried Fact:

The Braves and Pirates once played an exhibition game in Paris, France (2000)—the first MLB game ever played in Europe.
