Usually John Mozeliak and crew have a season-ending press conference a couple of days after the season, well, ends.

With the regular season behind us, it’s time to start taking a look back at some of the aspects of the 2018 season. One of the hallmarks of this team was their ability to pull a game out in their last at bat. The Cardinals registered 11 wins in the walk-off fashion but even though [...]

Opponent: Montreal Expos Location: Busch Stadium End of day Sammy Sosa total: 66 End of day Ken Griffey Jr. total: 55 The Cardinals were well out of any playoff picture and had already clinched a winning season, so normally the last couple of games would have been exhibitions to rest starters or a chance for the hometown fans [...]
