#OTD 2000 - St. Louis defeat the Braves, 10–4, to take a 2-game-to-1 lead in their NLDS. @WillClark22 hits a three-run home run for St. Louis and Jim Edmonds ties a division-series record with three doubles. Darryl Kile is the winning pitcher. #STLCards
Happy 79th birthday, Tony La Russa!
The four-time Manager of the Year won three World Series: 1989 with Oakland, 2006 and 2011 with St. Louis. La Russa’s 2,884 wins are second only to Connie Mack.

@markgeezy84 @ozziejamn@SportsByRick@whitesox So rather than be .500 or a 93 win team in the playoffs let’s settle for 100 loss season because you can’t give any credit to a guy you hate. Got it.
@ChrisDeLuca You couldn’t even give this news 24 hrs to post an anti La Russa hate piece? “Not a triumphant return”? He literally just came back from a year long battle with cancer. Meanwhile this year has proven that he was far from the problem.
@Mac74King This gif reminds me of someone saying TLR would have been upset about how Robert wore his hat during the home run derby. 🤣🤣🤣These fools will still say anything to hate on that man no matter how dumb they sound.
@LarryDavid26@North2North@TonyLaRussa@VSiNLive@itsdaveross What are the 3 rules he didn’t know? I know of only 1 that was a new rule that had zero impact on the 93 win season. The clip of him sleeping is literally 2 seconds of him closing his eyes before a game while having heath issues. 🤷🏻♂️
@mjbracco128@NBCSWhiteSox And yet they went on to win 93 games and a division finished at .500 last year and currently sit at 16 games under .500 without him but he was the problem huh? 🤦🏻♂️
@BrianMy76706691@NBCSWhiteSox So you want him to be sick because you didn’t like how he managed? Sorry but his health is bigger than the game same with Liam and in case you haven’t noticed by now he was actually far from the problem.
