Pittsburgh Pirates star Bryan Reynolds cracked back at Hall of Famer Dennis Eckersley on Wednesday after the legendary closer ripped the organization during their game against the Boston Red Sox.

Eckersley, who is a broadcaster for the Red Sox, was bewildered by the Pirates’ lineup. He called it a "hodgepodge of nothingness" and then called the organization "pathetic" for its consistent low payroll.

Reynolds was asked about the remark.

"I couldn’t give any less of a crap what that guy has to say," he said via the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

The Pirates have not won much of anything since their 1979 World Series championship run behind Dave Parker and Willie Stargell against the Baltimore Orioles.

Since their last World Series win, the Pirates have made the postseason only six times and have failed to even get back to the Fall Classic. Pittsburgh made the National League Wild Card Series in 2014 and 2015 and lost in the National League Division Series in five games in 2013.
