When Ozzie Smith performed backflips while heading to his position before the start of Cardinals home openers, postseason contests and All-Star Games, it was as if he were saying, “Let the fun begin.”

Joe Buck Reveals Why You Think He Hates Your Favorite Team
Joe Buck has been the lead announcer for FOX's MLB coverage since 1996, and has led their NFL coverage since 2002. Over that timespan, if you haven't said it yourself, you've probably had a friend - or 10 - that have asked during a prime-time game why they get the impression that Buck isn't a fan of their favorite team.

Another Favorite Moment
It POURED on the morning of October 14, 1985. Game five of the NLCS between the Cardinals and the Dodgers didn’t start until late afternoon, but in the morning, it was raining hard. I remember because I had to go downtown to work for something early, at about 9:00, and I got a flat tire. I had a 1984 red Honda CRX, a tiny little car, and somehow on 40 near McKnight my right front tire went flat. So, I pulled over, changed it, got soaked, and went on my merry way.

Making Up For Lost Time
Many years ago, Jack Buck wrote a poem about baseball and the connection from the game between a father and his children. “I don’t know about you,” he said, in his deep, booming voice as he read to the crowd at Busch Stadium. “I’d do anything to have one more catch with my Dad.” The ending was so simple, yet, impactful. Baseball is a game that brings us together. I was reminded of that poem during this year’s “Cardinals Fantasy Camp.”

Only One Team In MLB History Hase Comeback From 0-2 In The NLCS: The Cardinals
The last time a team in the National League Championship Series lost the first two games, then came back to win, Ozzie Smith was making folks go crazy and Willie McGee was the league MVP. The 2019 St. Louis Cardinals are trying to do what Smith, McGee, Jack Clark and company did in 1985 and keep its World Series hopes alive.
