Former MLB pitcher Steve Blass will host a pierogie eating contest at the Pittsburgh Pirates fan festival on Sunday. After an All Star season in 1972, Blass totally lost control of his pitches in 1973 without any discernible reason, which became known as "Steve Blass Disease".

    He was forced to retire at age 31 because of that uncontrollable disease. He pitched two complete games and helped the pirates win the world series in 1971. A great pitcher but never won 20 games
