The Watertown Pirates were the short season Class A farm club of the Pittsburgh Pirates in the New York-Penn League for six seasons from 1983 through 1988. Several future Major League stars came through Watertown during the Pirates era, including Jay Buhner (1984), Moises Alou (1986 & 1987) and Tim Wakefield (1988). The Watertown Indians replaced the Pirates for the 1989 NY-Penn League season.
