Raising the Jolly Roger with special guest Greg Brown

In this sports-themed episode of the #PittsburghOddcast, the 26-year veteran Pirates play-by-play announcer, Greg Brown joins us once again to talk all things baseball, football and more! Since 1882, the Pirates have played 20,950 games of which, Greg has called 4,142 of them! We dive deep into the origins of the game, discover the origin of how we came to be known as the Pirates, talk about the legends who have played here & how there is a parallel to Football to be observed. We also go behind the scenes of Steve Blass’ last three games in the broadcast booth and the emotions that everyone felt that weekend. In addition we get into more current Pirates news, new additions to the broadcast team, tales of the MLB cheating scandal and play a difficult game of Pirates trivia. So “clear the deck, cannonball coming!” See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.
