===Pirates Hall of Fame=== In 2022, the Pirates formally established a team Hall of Fame to honor the "most influential ballplayers in Pittsburgh baseball history", as picked by an internal committee that had the help of team historian Jim Trdinich.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://cialisprof.com/tim-benz-1st-pirates-hall-of-fame-class-has-an-important-inclusion-a-glaring-omission-and-a-contentious-debate/ | title=Tim Benz: 1st Pirates Hall of Fame class has an important inclusion, a glaring omission and a contentious debate - | date=August 8, 2022 | access-date=September 10, 2022 | archive-date=September 10, 2022 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220910024450/https://cialisprof.com/tim-benz-1st-pirates-hall-of-fame-class-has-an-important-inclusion-a-glaring-omission-and-a-contentious-debate/ | url-status=usurped }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.mlb.com/pirates/history/hall-of-fame | title=Pirates Hall of Fame | Pittsburgh Pirates | website=[[MLB.com]] }}</ref> 19 individuals were part of the first class, which included every Pittsburgh Pirate inducted into the [[National Baseball Hall of Fame]] along with several other former players, broadcasters, and coaches. Like the Washington Nationals with the [[Washington Nationals#Ring of Honor|Ring of Honor]], the Pirates inducted players that had played for the [[Negro league baseball]] team [[Homestead Grays]], which had played in [[Forbes Field]] and [[Greenlee Field]] in Pittsburgh alongside their time in Washington; two of the first class also spent time with the [[Pittsburgh Crawfords]], with a ceremony dedicated to "signing" the four to Pirates contracts. All inductees were honored with a plaque displayed in the concourse by the entrance with the statue of [[Roberto Clemente]].<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/34517021/pittsburgh-pirates-induct-inaugural-class-19-team-hall-fame | title=Pirates induct 19 into team's inaugural HOF class | date=September 3, 2022 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.mlb.com/news/pirates-induct-inaugural-hall-of-fame-class | title=Pirates induct 19 baseball legends into inaugural HOF class | website=[[MLB.com]] }}</ref> {| class="wikitable" |+Key |- !scope="row" style="background:#ffb;"| '''Bold''' |Member of the [[National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum|Baseball Hall of Fame]] |- !scope="row" style="background:#ffb;"| {{center|{{dagger}}}} |Member of the Baseball Hall of Fame as a Pirate |- !scope="row" style="background:#cfc;"| '''Bold''' |Recipient of the Hall of Fame's [[Ford C.
