I will guess Kent Tekulve. The Pirates won the 1979 World Series and he was the closer. Taking a shot that he closed out that World Series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But it says that they pitched in the last game, not necessarily the last pitcher... As for the answer, forgot about him... Great question from @patweisers44...

The pitcher had to have pitched for the Pirates and Phillies. I only know that because I live in the Philadelphia market and something like this has been said before. The only other pitcher on that 1979 Pirates team is Don Robinson. I didn't think he pitched that late into the '80's though. Maybe he did... so I'll go with Don Robinson as my guess.

Only how I figured it out. I knew the pitcher pitched for both the Pirates and Phillies. I knew that because it's been talked about in Philly in the past (I live in the Philly market). I knew that both Tekulvy and Robinson pitched for both the Pirates and Phillies... I just didn't think that Robinson pitched that many years. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
