1979 World Series
The 1979 World Series matched the National League's Pittsburgh Pirates (98–64) against the American League's
Baltimore Orioles (102–57), with the Pirates coming back from a three games to one deficit to win the Series
in seven games. The Pirates were famous for adopting Sister Sledge's hit anthem "We Are Family" as their
theme song.
Willie Stargell, pitcher Bruce Kison, and catcher Manny Sanguillen were the only players left over from the
1971 Pirates team that faced the Orioles. Orioles' pitcher Jim Palmer, Mark Belanger, and manager Earl Weaver
were the only ones who were still with the team that faced the Pirates in 1971.
In this Series, it was the American League team's "turn" to play by National League rules, meaning no designated
hitter and the Orioles' pitchers would have to bat. While this resulted in Tim Stoddard getting his first major
league hit and RBI in Game 4, overall, it hurt the Orioles because Lee May, their designated hitter for much of
the season and a key part of their offense, was only able to bat three times in the whole series.
Willie Stargell, the series MVP, hit .400 with a record seven extra-base hits and matched Reggie Jackson's record
of 25 total bases, set in 1977.
The Hall of Fame players in the 1979 World Series were Willie Stargell, Eddie Murray and Jim Palmer.
