Description

A century of Pittsburgh’s wealthy sports history is widely known through 50 greatest moments on this volume, culled from the coverage by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Some of the storied past of athletics within the Pennsylvanian city, this collection highlights such events because the Pirates on the World Series; Steelers’ Super Bowls; the Penguins with their back-to-back Stanley Cups; the era when Carnegie “Tech,” Duquesne, and Pitt were all playing college bowls; and boxing title bouts fought by Harry Greb, Teddy Yaroz, and Billy Conn. These moments and others from the wide spectrum of franchises and Hall of Fame athletes in Pittsburgh’s history are celebrated in a commemorative format that illustrates why Pittsburgh has earned the title of the “Absolute best Sports City” more than once and why “City of Champions” has come to explain town time and time again.
