RARE Pie Traynor (Pirates Legendary HOFer) Single-Signed Spalding Baseball - Full JSA Letter of Authenticity. Traynor is regarded as one of the best 3rd basemen of all-time, especially from the pre-War era. He played his entire career (between 1920 and 1937) for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Traynor batted over .300 ten times, posting a career average of .320, and had seven seasons with over 100 runs batted in (RBI). With home runs limited by playing in Forbes Field, the most difficult park for power hitting in the National League (NL), he compensated by reaching double digits in triples eleven times, leading the league in 1923. He batted .346 in the 1925 World Series to help the Pirates take their first championship in 16 years.
