As long as the Pirates are in the playoffs, St. Clair Hospital in Pittsburgh will outfit newborns in Pirates onesies, Bucco bandanas and mini baseball bats.
They’re starting ‘em young in Pittsburgh.
With the Pirates in the playoffs for the first time in 21 years, St. Clair Hospital is wasting no time indoctrinating infants in the new, winning ways of the local ballclub.
The facility tweeted out photos of newborns clad in Pirates’ onesies, bandanas and mini baseball bats, a sign of support for a team that has endured decades of losing.

Adorable!!
Pittsburghers are thrilled to have a team to root for now that the Steelers tanked.
Ya just gotta love a town that takes their sports THAT seriously!
Boo hiss!!!
But the baby pirate outfits are cute
Mr S and I each have several of those over our easy chairs. Too bad the Steelers stink this year.
But the Pirates! Go Buccos! Raise the Jolly Roger!
ARRR!!! B^)
My twin sister and I were born at St. Claire hospital. I’ll skip saying what year it was :)
Good to see that Pittsburgh finally has a major league baseball team again.
Beat ‘em Bucs!
I have a niece and nephew who were both born there! :o)
just too cute...I was sad to see the Indians go out so fast..but glad for Pittsburgh..
now we need to get our Steeler on a winning streak..wake up Ben..and maybe we need to say good bye to Mike T. ya think?
Cute.… Had some surgery at St. Clair last year ...great hospital
I too wish Cleveland had made the playoffs.
The Steelers are horrible. Ben is lousy without Hines Ward. I don’t blame Tomlin, the team lacks good young talent, IMO.
too adorable! i love it!
