After 61 years, the Pittsburgh Pirates said goodbye to Forbes Field in the middle of the season before moving to Three Rivers Park. Built in 1909 it was the home not only of the Pirates, but also the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers, and the University of Pittsburgh's Pitt Panthers.

We join Bob Prince, Nellie King, and Gene Osborn on KDKA for the second game in the double-header. The Pirates took the first game 3-2, can they close out their time at Forbes Field with a final victory?

You can find the boxscore here.

This game was played on June 28th, 1970.
