A name so few know ... Danny Gardella. Gardella played for the New York (baseball) Giants (now the #SFGiants) in 1944 and 1945. Then he battled management about his salary. Instead of accepting what the Giants offered, he challenged the reserve clause and lost. Rather than accept the terms, he opted to play elsewhere, in the Mexican League. It cost Danny his career. Banned from the Majors, Gardella did get one more opportunity to play in the Majors, with the St. Louis #Cardinals in 1950. But he only appeared in one game, and that was it. The Cardinals didn't see a future for Danny on their roster, demoted him to AA, and Danny never saw the light of day in Major League Baseball game again. Of course, those that followed and who challenged the reserve met with much more success, such as Curt Flood and Andy Messersmith. The free agents of today do not have to work within the confines of the reserve clause. But Danny did, and while he won a small sum of money in a lawsuit against #MLB, he lost his entire career. On this episode of Sports' Forgotten Heroes, we take a look back at the brief career of Danny Gardella and his fight with MLB and the New York Giants about the reserve clause with my guest Robert Elias who authored the book, "Dangerous Danny Gardella."

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the St. Louis Cardinals 8-1 loss to the Rangers from Sunday. We've got to talk about Erick Fedde, as the right-hander wasn't bad by any stretch of the imagination on Sunday, but there were just several elements of his game that made it a little less palatable to watch. His inability to hold runners was noticeable Sunday, at the least, and the season-long trend of walking batters popped up again.Still, he had the Cardinals in position to mount another rally after holding serve against ace Jacob deGrom. But when Oli Marmol decided to go for the gusto with offensive substitutions in the 7th, it did not pay off into runs being scored--and it also left the defense somewhat vulnerable.Brenden gives his take on the offense scoring only 4 runs all series -- long-term concern or just one of those instances of running into a tough pitching staff?Follow this podcast feed for daily Cardinals coverage all year long!

Sonny Gray was dominant for the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday, holding the Texas Rangers to a measly four hits and a goose egg in the runs column across seven stellar innings.

Ed and Rob took some time from Thursday's BBMS to talk Orioles with MASN's Roch Kubatko. The Birds dropped another series to the St. Louis Cardinals, but on a more macro level, the future of the team is still cloudy with interim manager Tony Mansolino at the helm. Will he finish out the season? When will the O's start the interview process for a new Skipper?

Ed and Rob took some time from Thursday's BBMS to recap another series loss for the O's, this time at the hands of the St. Louis Cardinals. The O's bullpen was unable to hold leads in their last two losses, but considering how much they've had to pitch recently, is it fair to put the blame on them?

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the St. Louis Cardinals coming from behind to win over the Orioles on Tuesday night in Baltimore.Lars Nootbaar put together a big day including a home run to help push the Cards out to a lead, and Andre Pallante was rolling along to maintain it -- until he wasn't.A 3-run homer for Baltimore meant the Cardinals had to find a way to come from behind. Nolan Gorman was tasked with a key spot against a lefty in the sixth inning, but was unable to tie the game, somewhat predictably. Brenden explains why Oli Marmol was anything but blind to that moment -- we have to see the bigger picture in 2025.Rest assured, later swings by Masyn Winn and Nolan Arenado put the Cardinals back ahead. And then lo and behold, we saw the 'runway' crew Gorman and Jordan Walker go back-to-back triples to help pad the newly-found lead.A lot to like about this one from the Cardinals perspective.Follow this podcast feed for daily Cardinals coverage all year!

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the St. Louis Cardinals win on Saturday over the Arizona Diamondbacks at Busch Stadium.Matthew Liberatore has been remarkable and was again on Saturday.

Ryan Helsley on a back-to-back is often a little nerve-wracking but great defense by Nolan Arenado and Alec Burleson in the ninth helped guide Helsley to a key... win? Why not a save?

n the early 1900s Roger Bresnahan was one of MLB's best catchers. He played for the New York Giants (now San Francisco Giants) and later was player-manager for the St. Louis Cardinals. While with the Giants, Bresnahan was beaned. It was a very scary instance in which Bresnahan's last rites were read. However, he survived and came back. He ultimately developed a batting helmet, but never wore it in a game. Another piece of equipment Bresnahan introduced was shin guards. Yes, Roger Bresnahan was not only one of baseball's great catchers, he was an innovator too! Perhaps, though, one of his finest moments occurred off the field. During a trip from Philadelphia to Boston, while he was with St. Louis, the train the Cardinals were on derailed and fell down an embankment. Miraculously, none of the Cardinals' players were hurt. However, several on the train died as a result of the crash. Bresnahan and the Cardinals did all they could to help rescue people from the catastrophic incident. On this episode of Sports' Forgotten Heroes, author John R. Husman, "Roger Bresnahan: A Baseball Life," joins the show for a terrific discussion about this Hall of Fame catcher and the baseball life he led.

Four decades ago, Cory Satterfield arrived on campus as a heralded right-handed pitcher from South Jersey. Recruited by Cal Koonce – a member of the 1969 Amazin' Mets – and later coached by 1982 Cy Young runner-up Mike Caldwell – Cory enjoyed a career capped by leading the Camels to their first Big South baseball title in 1988 and earning all-conference and all-tournament honors along the way. Thirty-seven years since he graduated, his name is still etched in the Campbell record books. He is still ranked among the program's top five all time leaders in wins, starts, complete games, innings pitched and strikeouts. Drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in 1988, Cory played three seasons in the minors, earning Midwest League All-Star honors in 1989. After his playing career ended Cory began a teaching career in Harnett County and later Richmond County. He was twice honored as principal of the year and later served as assistant superintendent and interim superintendent of Scotland County schools. After retiring from administrative duties, he was elected to the Richmond County Board of Education in 2022 and continues to serve that organization. In addition to playing golf whenever he can, Cory is also a member of the Athletic Director's advisory board at his alma mater. In the next installment of Tales from the Creek, Cory Satterfield talks with Stan Cole about his journey to Campbell, being coached by two former major league pitchers, his deep connections with his teammates and to the Buies Creek community, and much more.

Though it seems like only yesterday, this season marks the 40th anniversary of one of baseball's most misunderstood and overshadowed Fall Classics - the surprisingly competitive seven-game 1985 World Series.  While most remember the all-Missouri "Show-Me Series" for umpire Don Denkinger's blown call at first base in Game 6, baseball historian Marshall Garvey joins us to discuss why that single moment, while a significant turning point, shouldn't define what was otherwise a colorfully spirited battle between two well-matched in-state rivals.  In his new book, "Interstate '85: The Kansas City Royals, the St. Louis Cardinals, and the Show-Me Showdown That Rewrote Baseball History," Garvey peels back four decades of myth and oversight to uncover the full, rich tapestry of the "I-70 Series" — a provincial, emotionally charged showdown between two teams forever linked by more than just geography. Through more than two dozen exclusive interviews with key figures like George Brett, Ozzie Smith, Bud Black, and even Don Denkinger himself, Garvey explores the human stories, cultural context, and remarkable on-field drama that have long deserved more attention. + + +   SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable "Good Seats" Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/good-seats-still-avalable?ref_id=35106 SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): Old Fort Baseball Co.
