Honoring Maz

Today we learned that the Pirates have been planning on dedicating a statue to Bill Mazeroski, one of the few Pirate Greats that deserve such an honor at the ballpark. (Of course I am still waiting for some honor for Fred Clarke, but that is neither here nor there.)

This weekend at Piratefest the design will be unveiled and according to this article, the statue will be on Mazeroski Way, which is the first base side of the ballpark. We won't know for certain what the statue will look like until then, but I am guessing it will look something like this...

That will be quite the scene on the banks of the Allegheny.
