Thanks for the post! As a life long cardinal fan, it was interesting to see the box score with Slaughter and Mize’s names. I grew up watching Stan Musial and he’s why I bat/golf left handed although I am right-handed. Cards looking good this year, too!!!

I think the Reds have a very good chance to win the World Series. However, I'm also rooting for the Poles to make a comeback in your other thread this morning.< ominous minor chords at the foreshadowing >

Only 1,100 fans in Pittsburgh. Some things haven’t changed in 70 years.
