The 1934 Pittsburgh Pirates finished just under .500 at 74-76, in fifth place. Paul Waner (of) and Arky Vaughan (ss) were the team's best hitters that year. Larry French is a strong starter and Waite Hoyt is among the best relief pitchers in the game. Third baseman Pie Traynor will take over as manager during the season and continue to manage the Pirates for the rest of the decade, during which they'll improve and make a run at the pennant in 1938, falling just two games back of the Cubs.
