The Pittsburgh Pirates today announced that Barry Bonds, Jim Leyland and Manny Sanguillen will comprise the 2024 class of inductees into the Pittsburgh Pirates Hall of Fame. The club launched the Pittsburgh Pirates Hall of Fame in 2022 to recognize former players and managers who have made a significant impact on the franchise, the game of baseball and the Pittsburgh community.

“As an organization, we are proud to add three significant members to the Pittsburgh Pirates Hall of Fame,” said Pirates Chairman, Bob Nutting. “Included in this year’s class is a two-time MVP award-winner in Barry, a two-time Manager-of-the-Year award-winner in Jim and a two-time World Series champion with the Pirates in Manny. All three inductees are very deserving of this prestigious recognition. We look forward to celebrating their induction with our fans and sharing their stories with generations to come.”

Bonds, Leyland and Sanguillen will join the inaugural class of 19 members who were inducted into the Pirates Hall of Fame in 2022, along with the four inductees from 2023. This year’s class will be honored as part of a special pre-game ceremony on the field prior to the game against the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday, August 24.
