Got to be honest. I did not know Keith Hernandez played for the Cards for 9 years. Always thought he was just a Met.

Your knowledge of the best baseball team in history is very disappointing to say the least. I am a Cardinal historian. I might block you for 4 hours for your response, no offense Tankster, just disappointed in you.

Quietly dominant and forever underrated, Bob Forsch is in elite company. One of just nine pitchers in the entire 20th century to have a 20-win season, throw two no-hitters, and win a World Series.
He wasn’t always the flashiest name on the roster, but Forsch delivered when it mattered—year after year.
