#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

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 1982 - With two outs and two strikes in the 12th inning, Glenn Brummer steals home, giving the Cardinals an overtime walk-off 5-4 victory over the Giants at Busch Stadium. The reserve catcher will finish his major league career with just four stolen bases. #STLCards

I had to do some deep file diving, but after all these years, I finally found the video! Thanks to Bevo57 for sparking this search. This video is a true treasure, with Lou talking about breaking the all time stolen bases record just a few days before this interview. I hope you all enjoy it. Lou was such a kind and personable man, and this video shows it. #STLCards

#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

Oh my!! A very scary moment last night for ex- Cardinals infielder Paul DeJong. DeJong was hit in the face by a 93 mph fastball from Mitch Keller that left a gash on his nose and under his left eye. He was placed on the 10-day IL today. Get well soon Paul!

Congratulation to Kolton Wong on his retirement! We all have great memories of Wong while he was with the Cardinals. But this exchange between Wong, now a Brewer, and Yadi Molina is just epic! (Yadi would sign the base after the game) #STLCards #ForTheLou

#OTD 2011 - Before a frenzied standing-room only crowd at Busch Stadium, the Cardinals win their 11th World Series Championship. The Rangers scored twice in the first inning and fans were worried that the game 6 heroics didn't carry over. But "that man" was still lurking - David Freese tied the game at 2 with a two-run double in the bottom of the first and Allen Craig's third inning one-run homer put the Cardinals ahead for good. Chris Carpenter settled down to pitch 6 strong innings. Arthur Rhodes, Octavio Dotel and Lance Lynn followed Carp on the mound to keep the Rangers off the scoreboard. Jason Motte then gets the Rangers 1-2-3 in the ninth inning to close it out. ⚾️ Final score, 6-2 🏆 David Freese was named the MVP 🎙️ "What a team! What a ride! The Cardinals are World Champs in 2011!" - Joe Buck #STLCards | Joe Buck
