Either Vince Coleman drove you mad as a Giants fan in the ‘80s, or you weren’t around for it. There isn’t a comparable player today. When the Giants and Cardinals met in the 1987 NLCS, Coleman was coming off a season in which he stole 107 freaking bases, the second of three straight 100-plus seasons. He was a caffeinated water bug, and he is one of the building blocks of Pure Cardinals Hate that you carry in your heart today.
