La temporada 1972 de los Piratas de Pittsburgh fue la temporada 91 de la franquicia de los Piratas de Pittsburgh ; el 86 en la Liga Nacional . El campeón defensor de la Serie Mundial , los Piratas, terminó primero en la Liga Nacional del Este con un récord de 96–59. El equipo fue derrotado tres juegos a dos por los Rojos de Cincinnati en la Serie de Campeonato de la Liga Nacional de 1972.. A pesar de perder la serie, los Piratas dieron una buena pelea, a diferencia de la última vez que los dos equipos se enfrentaron en los playoffs. En el juego 5, los Piratas lideraron 3-2 en la novena entrada, y estaban a 3 outs de lograr una gran sorpresa ante los Rojos. Todo lució bien hasta que los Piratas colapsaron en la novena entrada y permitieron que anotaran 2 carreras, y la carrera de salida llegó en un lanzamiento descontrolado.
