He accomplished a feat in 1966 that will never be duplicated - he threw FIVE complete game shutouts vs the NL Champion Los Angeles Dodgers that year. Still one of the most astounding pitching records of all time.

Your favorite, yet you can't spell his name.

The horror!

I'm sure you struggled to understand who I meant

To be fair, you are the first to jump on anyone for any small infraction. So...glass house situation

I was always in awe of The Zamboni machine talk on the radio when I was little. I was really believing that guy was the best third baseman ever and never missed a ball. As a younger adult I was fond of Benard Gilkey. I thought he was very underrated and one of the best Cardinals of that era. As for the goto player. Hands down for me, Glen Brummer. That third string catcher's stealing of home in the heat of the pennant race propelled that team to achieve greatness. Without that play, 1982 doesn't happen. They learned that day they could do.anything!

Of course...

Bob Uecker.
1964 World Series. Game 7 Postgame clubhouse hilarious
Playing role of interviewer

No surprise he was destined to be one of most entertaining play by play guys in MLB history

Remember his funny appearances on Johnny Carson late night.
Ueck : I signed with the Cardinals for $5,000.
In those days, that was a lot of money for my old man to scrape up !

Johnny rofl

Julian Javier. When we went to a game, Dad's instruction was for me to watch Javier to learn what a 2B was to do. I mostly played 2B, and Javier's classes for me made me a much better player.

Didn’t Felix Jose win a batting title?

Mark Whiten, Mike Ramsey, Bake McBride, Jerry Mumphrey, Hector Cruz.

Heavy hittin' Mark Whiten: September 7, 1993 - 4 home runs in 1 game vs. the Reds. 1 grand slam, 2 3-run HRs, and 1 2-run HR. 12 RBIs in a single game - tied for the MLB record.

Helluva game. Add the Tatis game and his grannies, oh my.

David Freese. He turned into Babe Ruth for a couple of weeks but c’mon he wasn’t a star.
