St. Louis Cardinals fans had a deep appreciation for what makes Tommy Edman so valuable during his five seasons with the club. Now his star is shining even brighter on the national stage thanks to the greatness of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Last night, the Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays played in one of the best World Series games we have seen this century, battling for 18 innings before Freddie Freeman's solo blast to center field gave the Dodgers a 2-1 series lead over the Blue Jays.
While Freeman's blast and Shohei Ohtani's epic offensive night were the talk of the town, anyone who watched the game closely knows just how pivotal a role Edman played defensively in that instant classic.
