Josh Harrison’s legacy with the Pittsburgh Pirates is set to be officially honored on August 7th, when he’ll retire as a Pirate with a press conference and batting practice watch — and on August 8th, the first 20,000 fans will get commemorative shirts while he throws out the first pitch before a game against the Mets. Known for his grit, work ethic, and team-first attitude, Harrison helped break the Pirates’ 21-year playoff drought in 2013, earned two All-Star nods (2014, 2017), and left a lasting mark with over 14 wins above replacement and 50 homers in 842 games. His retirement, announced in May 2025, now feels like a natural, heartfelt homecoming.
