Brian Giles and Jason Kendall Join the Show!

Episode 318 is an extremely special Bucco Bantr exclusive as Pirates greats Jason Kendall and Brian Giles join the show to reflect on their careers in Pittsburgh and break down how the game has evolved today.

If you watched Kendall and Giles in the late 90s and early 2000s, you remember the style—they played the game the way Pittsburgh fans love: relentless, gritty, and all-out every single inning.

We dive into their time with the Pirates, stories from the clubhouse, and their perspective on today’s game. This is a must-listen for any true Bucco fan. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did.
