I just checked the back of White’s card on BR, Bikemike. In addition to those 7 consecutive GG’s, he put 3 consecutive seasons with 100 or more RBI’s up on the board as a Redbird and placed 3rd between Callison and F. Robinson in the ’64 NL MVP voting. He’s also pushing close to 93 years of age. Bill White’s a veritable living NL baseball legend.
March 31, 2026 at 8:24 pm #303711Yep, Bill White made a huge impact on the game. Played, broadcasted, and eventually rose to President of the National League.
Bill was instrumental in getting Gussie Busch to integrate the Cardinals Spring Training facilities in the early ’60s as well. One of my all-time favorite Cardinals.
March 31, 2026 at 8:24 pm #303712Man, Winn has a cannon! Great play to get out of the first and third, no out situation.
March 31, 2026 at 8:32 pm #303715This has been a tightly contested and well played baseball game. So far.
March 31, 2026 at 8:35 pm #303716Stanek sure walks a lot of guys.
March 31, 2026 at 8:37 pm #303717Haha!…Yadier over there next to the camera guy. In addition to being a HOF catcher and one of my all time favorite Cardinals, Molina also provided me with a lot of good laughs over the years. Especially during interviews. Most of those were genuine Yadier classics.
March 31, 2026 at 8:57 pm #303719I see that Skippy’s got his Rangers off to a 4-1 start. He did good in Florida and I expect him to do better in Texas. He played for a pretty good Big League manager when he was a Cardinal and Skippy always impressed me as a guy who pays close attention.
March 31, 2026 at 9:10 pm #303721That’s a winner. Herrera called a good game behind the plate and at it hit well and had a good strike zone judgement.
March 31, 2026 at 9:10 pm #303722Well, that was a nice and pleasant uneventful inning of work from O’Brien to seal it shut and close it out for the W.
March 31, 2026 at 9:11 pm #303723Yeah 1TD agree. An easy non eventful save is nice
March 31, 2026 at 9:13 pm #303724I’d like to see Saggasse get more opportunities in LF with Church struggling so much.
Also have to say it is nice seeing Victor playing good so far this year
March 31, 2026 at 9:15 pm #303725Yeah, Albert, I’m not accustomed to those, but I could really grow fond of a stretch of 9th innings identical to what was featured in tonight’s game.
March 31, 2026 at 9:18 pm #303727Yeah, Scott is going to have to have to feature at least a moderate amount of offensive production from the CF position. So far, so good.

ParticipantGreat pitching tonight. Nice to see obrien get a chance at the save.
March 31, 2026 at 9:21 pm #303730The team looks good so far.
March 31, 2026 at 9:29 pm #303731They played a near flawless game across the board tonight, Bling. Real good turn from the SP’er, no E’s, timely hitting and, with the exception of a solitary BB, a perfect 4 innings of work from the BP.
April 1, 2026 at 5:02 am #303736Nice to get ahead early and hold them off for nine innings. I must say, though, this Stanek guy does not inspire confidence.
Rah Cardinals!April 1, 2026 at 5:14 am #303737When your clean up hitter is trying to bunt runners over, something is wrong with your lineup.
April 1, 2026 at 6:19 am #303739Hopefully we have seen the last of Stanek as closer. That should be O’Brien’s job with the occasional assist from Jo Jo.
Solid win last night against a good team. Oh and the Cubs lost to the Angels so that makes it a real good night.
April 1, 2026 at 8:27 am #303744Hopefully we’ve seen the last of Winn batting clean up, Stanek closing, and Hererra’s hitting funk.
