*On May 8, 1886, the Pittsburgh Alleghenys turned the first 3–4–2 triple play in Major League history.<ref name="BaseballAlmanac1">{{citation|title=Triple Plays in Major League Baseball|url=https://www.baseball-almanac.com/feats/triple_plays.shtml|website=Baseball Almanac|access-date=2024-10-11}}</ref> In the fourth inning of a game, the [[Cincinnati Red Stockings]] put runners in first and second with no outs. [[John Reilly (baseball)|John Reilly]] grounded out to first base, where [[Fred Carroll]] recorded the first out. He threw to second base, where [[Sam Barkley]] made the tag for the second out. The runner from second decided to try for home plate and he was cut down on a throw from Barkley and a tag by [[Doggie Miller]].{{citation needed|date=October 2024}} The Alleghenys won the game, 9–6.<ref name="BaseballReference1">{{citation|url=https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/PIT/1886-schedule-scores.shtml|title=1886 Allegheny City Schedule|website=Baseball Reference|access-date=2024-10-11}}</ref>
*First ever Major League Baseball game broadcast on the radio, a game between the Pirates and the host [[Philadelphia Phillies]] aired August 5, 1921, on [[KDKA (AM)]] Pittsburgh. The Pirates won the game, 8–5.
*In [[1925 World Series|1925]], the Pirates became the first MLB team to recover from a 3-games-to-1 deficit in winning a best-of-seven World Series; they then became the first MLB team to repeat that feat in [[1979 World Series|1979]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espn.com/espn/wire?section=mlb&id=3666008 |title=World Series 1–3 Comebacks – MLB |work=ESPN |date=October 27, 2008 |access-date=December 5, 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|author=MLB.com |url=http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20081014&content_id=3620586&vkey=ps2008news&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb |title=LCS, World Series 3–1 comebacks &#124; MLB.com: News |publisher=Mlb.mlb.com |date=January 2, 2010 |access-date=December 5, 2010}}</ref>
*During the 1953 season, the Pirates became the first team to permanently adopt batting helmets on both offense and defense. These helmets resembled a primitive fiberglass "[[coal miner|miner's cap]]". This was the mandate of general manager [[Branch Rickey]], who also owned stock in the company producing the helmets. Under Rickey's orders, all Pirate players had to wear the helmets both at bat and in the field. The helmets became a permanent feature for all Pirate hitters, but within a few weeks the team began to abandon their use of helmets in the field, partly because of their awkward and heavy feel. Once the Pirates discarded the helmets on defense, the trend disappeared from the game.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.oaklandfans.com/columns/markusen/markusen180.html |title=Oakland A's Fan Coalition – Athletics baseball enthusiasts dedicated to watching a winner |publisher=Oaklandfans.com |date=July 12, 1980 |access-date=December 5, 2010 |archive-date=July 14, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110714223256/http://www.oaklandfans.com/columns/markusen/markusen180.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> In 2014, Major League Baseball allowed pitchers to choose to wear a padded hat that aims to combine the added safety of a helmet with the comfort of a baseball cap.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://m.nydailynews.com/1.1594040|title=MLB approves protective cap for pitchers in time for 2014 season|website=[[New York Daily News]]|access-date=April 26, 2014}}{{Dead link|date=October 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> The cap would prove widely unpopular, with only [[Alex Torres (baseball)|Alex Torres]] of the [[New York Mets]] choosing to wear it.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20140621&content_id=80967370&notebook_id=81029680&vkey=notebook_sd&c_id=sd|title=San Diego Padres reliever Alex Torres was the first pitcher to try out MLB's new protective hat|website=San Diego Padres}}</ref> 
*First franchise to win a World Series on a [[walk-off home run|home run]] ([[1960 World Series]]) in the 7th game. The only other team to accomplish this feat is the [[1993 Toronto Blue Jays season|Toronto Blue Jays]] in [[1993 World Series|1993]], though theirs came in Game 6.
*In {{baseball year|1970}} the Pirates became the first major league club to create their uniforms using a cotton-nylon blend featuring pull-over shirts and beltless pants.<ref>{{cite news|work=National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum|title=Dressed to the Nines: A History of the Baseball Uniform|access-date=November 26, 2014|url=http://exhibits.baseballhalloffame.org/dressed_to_the_nines/timeline_5.htm}}</ref>

*The first World Series night game was played in [[Three Rivers Stadium]] on October 13, 1971—[[Pittsburgh sports lore#Mazeroski's Home Run|eleven years to the day since Mazeroski's walk-off homer brought the Pirates their last World Series title in 1960]]. In this case, however, it was Game 4 between the Pirates and the Baltimore Orioles, rather than a decisive Game 7. Apparently, good things happen for the Pirates on this date, as they knotted the [[1971 World Series]] at two games apiece on their way to their fourth title.
*The first MLB scout to win the "Scout of the Year Award", [[Howie Haak]], in 1984, three additional scouts from the organization have subsequently won the award.
*The first combined [[Extra innings|extra inning]] [[no-hitter]] in MLB history took place at Three Rivers Stadium on July 12, 1997. [[Francisco Córdova (baseball, born 1972)|Francisco Córdova]] (9 innings) and [[Ricardo Rincón]] (1 inning) combined to no-hit the [[1997 Houston Astros season|Houston Astros]], 3–0 in 10 innings. [[Pinch-hitter]] [[Mark Smith (outfielder)|Mark Smith's]] three-run [[walk-off home run]] in the bottom of the 10th inning sealed the victory and the no-hitter for the Pirates. It remains the only such no-hitter to date.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://archive.sportingnews.com/baseball/ballparks/threerivers.html|website=Sporting News|title=Five Great Moments at Three Rivers Stadium|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060623191800/http://archive.sportingnews.com/baseball/ballparks/threerivers.html|archive-date=June 23, 2006}}</ref>

*On May 9, 2015, the Pirates became the first MLB team to turn a 4–5–4 triple play. The triple play occurred during a 7–5 win over the [[St. Louis Cardinals]]. The play occurred when the Cardinals' [[Yadier Molina]] lined out to Pittsburgh second baseman [[Neil Walker (baseball)|Neil Walker]]. Walker then threw to third baseman [[Jung Ho Kang]] to double off the Cardinals' [[Jhonny Peralta]] for the second out.
