HALL OF FAME GAME

The Pittsburgh Pirates announced the 2026 Hall of Fame class of Wilbur Cooper, John Candelaria and Jack Wilson.

“The playing careers of the three inductees who make up the 2026 class of the Pittsburgh Pirates Hall of Fame span nearly 100 years, reflecting the rich history of our organization and the special place these players hold within it," said Pirates Chairman Bob Nutting. “This recognition is about the celebration of the career achievements and a testament to the impact they had on our organization. We established the Pirates Hall of Fame to ensure the stories of players like Wilbur, Jack, and John are shared with generations of Pirates fans, and we are proud to welcome them as the call of 2026.”
