The 1960 Pittsburgh Pirates season was the team's 79th season. The team finished with a record of 95–59, seven games in front of the second-place Milwaukee Braves to win their first National League championship in 33 seasons. The team went on to play the heavily favored New York Yankees, whom they defeated 4 games to 3 in one of the most storied World Series ever.
Offseason
At the 1959 Winter Meetings, Pirates general manager Joe L. Brown had agreed to trade Dick Groat to the Kansas City Athletics in exchange for Roger Maris. Pirates manager Danny Murtaugh had advised Brown that he did not want to lose Groat, and the deal was never finalized.[2] Maris was eventually traded to the Yankees, and both players would go on to win the MVP for their respective leagues and face each other in the World Series.
Notable transactions
- Prior to 1960 season: José Martínez was signed as an amateur free agent by the Pirates.[3]

Regular season
On September 6, team captain Dick Groat was drilled on his left wrist by an inside pitch from Braves pitcher Lew Burdette.[4] Groat was lost for the rest of the season. Dick Schofield stepped in for the injured Groat and went three for three in that September 6 game. The Pirates won the game 5–3 and Schofield would go on to hit .414 for the rest of the season.[4]
On September 25 in Milwaukee, the Pirates clinched their first pennant in 33 years.[5]

Postseason
1960 World Series
The 1960 Pirates team, which featured eight All-Stars, was widely predicted to lose the World Series to a powerful New York Yankees team. In one of the most memorable World Series in history, the Pirates were defeated by more than ten runs in three games, won three close games, then recovered from a 7–4 deficit late in Game 7 to eventually win on a walk-off home run by Bill Mazeroski, a second baseman better known for his defensive wizardry.
