Yogi Berra watched his youngest son Dale be chosen by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the first round of the summer draft. The 18 year old Montclair New Jersey shortstop bypassed college offers to pursue baseball and is praised by his father who expects negotiations to begin immediately.

The Pirates followed with six other pitchers and several position players across rounds as they strengthen their pitching staff.
