Pittsburgh Pirates at San Diego Padres

Both teams dressed in 1978 throwbacks, the Padres in the mustard and brown outfit they've worn a few times in 2010, and the Pirates in a nice looking pinstripes jersey over black pants combo with the yellow pill box hat.

Pittsburgh Pirates at Oakland Athletics

The A's defeated the Pirates 5-0 on 1970s Turn Back the Clock night. Both teams wore flashy uniforms from the 70s, with the A's in bright yellow and green and the Pirates in black and gold. Pittsburgh even dusted off its famed pillbox caps, although their yellow ones shouldn't have had stars. The Pirates and A's were dominant teams in the 70s, combining for five World Series titles.
