As the final days of the Pirates 2019 season winds down, the organization is allowing fans to wish longtime broadcaster Steve Blass a fond farewell.
The Pirates have created the “Steve Blass Greeting Hotline” that gives fans of the former World Series pitcher a brief, personal message to Blass. Whether is a well-wish, a memory, or a retirement congratulations, the Pirates say they want you to call.
The number is 412-325-4660.
The Pirates hope to play as many as possible on-the-air.
Blass pitched for the Pirates from 1964-1974 and began broadcasting in 1983. In total, Blass has spent over 60 years with the Pirates organization.
