The BWAA recently revealed the list of players that made it on the ballot to voted into the 2020 Baseball Hall of Fame Class. Four former Cardinals made the list:
Rafael Furcal
Brad Penny
Scott Rolen
Larry Walker
In honor of their nominations here are some of my strongest memories of each of them wearing the Birds on the Bat....
If I extended this to memories from their career, Furcal’s unassisted triple play against the Cardinals would likely top the list, but limited to his stint with the Cardinals, not much surpasses the diving stop made in the bottom of the eighth inning in an epic 1-0 pitchers duel for Game 5 of the 2011 NLDS.
