yeah, hack. There used to be bad blood. Like when that Pirates announcer (Rooker?)said he'd walk back home to Pittsburgh from Philly if the Pirates lost a 10 run lead to the Phils back in the 80s.

Actually, didn't the Pirates get their name because they stole a player from Philly? That was waaaayyyyyyy back. Those teams are old. It may have even been the Philadelphia A's come to think of it.

For those that don't know the story, the guy did make the walk when the Phils came back and won it.

Raised some good dough for charity on the way.

From MLB.com:

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="525" border="0"> <tbody> <tr valign="middle"> <td class="historyBg3" align="right"> 1891 </td> <td> -</td> <td class="pad7"> December -- The Alleghenies are renamed Pirates after signing second baseman Louis Bierbauer away from the Philadelphia Athletics.</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>

Good call, Red!!!

What that actually says is this:

1891 - The Alleghenies are renamed Pirates after signing second baseman Louis Bierbauer away from the Philadelphia Athletics.

Darn cut and paste function....
