» June 14, 1913: At Forbes Field, Christy Mathewson allows seven hits, including a homer by Owen Wilson, but holds on to beat the Bucs, 6–5. Hank Robinson takes the loss. The Giants sweep the 3-game series.

» December 12, 1913: The Pirates clean house in an 8-player swap with the Cardinals. Going to St. Louis is Dots Miller, a 1909 World Series hero, 14-game winner Hank Robinson, 3B Cozy Dolan, infielder Art Butler, and OF Chief Wilson, king of the triple. The Pirates receive pitcher Bob Harmon, 3B Mike Mowry, and 1B Ed Konetchy, whom the Bucs had been after for years.
