Steve Blass, the former right-hander whose pitching career ended prematurely once he developed a strange inability to throw strikes, stole the Pirates alumni's annual golf outing by sinking two holes in one in a span of 11 holes at Greensburg Country Club. Ace No. 1 came on the 154-yard and ace No. 2 came with a seven-iron on the 175-yard
Golf numbers-crunchers estimate the odds at 67 million-to-one. In 1972 he had his finest season for the Bucs, with a 19-8 record. That season, he totaled 76 unintentional walks in 2/3 innings. In 1971, Blass picked up two wins as the Pirates took Baltimore in a seven-game series.
