Oct 22 2063: Big changes, demotion - by Bennett11 on March 24th, 2024After a disappointing season finishing 72-90 n ranking 4th in our division we have been demoted back down. Last season marked our first promotion in over 8 seasons and it only lasted for one season. As a result, manager Ivan Corley was dismissed after 5 seasons on the job. We wish him the best elsewhere.
34 yr old Tom Bennett was promoted from 3rd base coach to manager after only one season on the staff, he excelled with pitchers n player development. He’s got great leadership qualities and can manage a pitching staff, something we lacked last season. We look forward to what Bennett brings to our team as we shift into a rebuild.
Aug 30 2063: Staff switch - by Bennett11 on March 11th, 2024
After 11 seasons spent as our bench coach, Scott clay was relieved of his duty’s this afternoon. The move comes in favor of 40 yr old coach Johnny Burge, who provides new insight and a fresh presence to the balllclub. Burge is an all around upgrade to the staff.
Clay, at 46 years of age spent the last 11 seasons coaching our bench since I took over the franchise, he’s very skilled with hitters n developing minor leaguers. We wish him nothing but the best in his future endeavors.

Jul 16 2063: 2063 all stars - by Bennett11 on February 28th, 2024
For the 6th time in his 7 yr career Catcher Ivan Daley has made the all star game representing the pirates! This is the first time in pirates history a player has done this. On the pitching side Garry Krause is our lone representative, his 1st with the pirates n the 4th of his career. Lots of games left to be played but we’re still in the race.
Nov 02 2062: Division champs!!! - by Bennett11 on January 10th, 2024
For the first time in 11 seasons, the pirates won 95 games and finished first in the division. And a 2-1 game 7 victory over Morgantown in the league playoffs was the first time we’ve won a league playoff series in over 15 seasons. Truly a remarkable season for the pirates, we look forward to attacking the offseason n continuing this success into next season.
