I am SO excited to share this for the first time!! A lot of us remember the scoreboard at Sportsman's Park, and a lot of the younger fans have been told about it - but never seen it in action. Here she is, all her bird-flapping, bird-swinging glory! #STLCards

#OTD 1978 - The Cardinals acquire George Hendrick from the Padres for Eric "Don't call me Harry" Rasmussen. "Silent George" provided much needed power for the "Whiteyball" era teams and played a strong defense while winning 2 Silver Slugger awards. His game 7 go-ahead hit in the 1982 World Series proved to be the game winning hit! #STLCards

#OTD 2006 - In Game 7 of the NLCS at Shea Stadium, Adam Wainwright, on three pitches, strikes out Carlos Beltran looking with the bases loaded, giving the Cardinals a 3-1 victory over the Mets, their 17th pennant in franchise history, and a trip to the World Series to face the Tigers. The New York outfielder, with the best HR ratio (11/81) in postseason history, is frozen by the rookie right-hander's two-out, two-strike incredible curveball. Yadier Molina powers the offense with a two-run home run. 🎤 Mike Shannon #STLCards | Adam Wainwright

At Minute Maid Park, in game 5 of the NLCS, the Astros were one out away from their first World Series appearance - but Albert Pujols saved the Cardinals by hitting a stunning three-run home run off Brad Lidge in the ninth inning, and the Cardinals rallied for a 5-4 victory.

#OTD 2007 - The Cardinals signed free agent Rick Ankiel. (Rick Ankiel) He was granted free agency just a month prior by the team. In 2005, after years of frustration and minor league struggles due to the "yips", Ankiel made a life-changing choice when he announced he was giving up pitching to become an outfielder. The Cardinals fully supported him, and he began the long and difficult climb back through the minors. He missed the entire 2006 season due to injury but exploded in 2007 at Triple-A Memphis, smashing 32 home runs and driving in 89 runs. On August 9, 2007, he was called up and made his debut as a position player - hitting a three-run homer in his first game back in a 5-0 Cardinals win over the Padres at Busch Stadium. 🎙️ Dan McLaughlin and Al Hrabosky
