Add Jack to list of Pirates legends

Jack Wilson didn't play on a World Series winner, or even a team with a winning record, like the man pictured below, but he is still a Pirates legend in my book. On Sunday, Jack got an ovation from the PNC Park crowd just before earning a pinch hit single. Fans knew it was probably his last plate appearence as a Bucco. Jack Wilson has exhibited nothing but class, hustle, pride, and loyalty while wearing a Pirates uniform. Thanks Jack!

Here is a picture of me in my Jack Wilson jersey getting an autograph from Pirates legend, Manny Sanguillen.



Update 9/22/08 @ 7:29am (ET): I just found this picture of a young Jack Wilson fan over at the PBC Blog:
