It was quite the memorable scene along the Allegheny River, near the confluence, this weekend. At the temporarily docke
d
LST 325, men such as

Dick Groat (perhaps the
finest athlete in the history of Pittsburgh sports)
honored teammate Bill Mazeroski, men exceptional enough to rekindle glory associated with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
