  1. 1882, St. Louis Brownstockings, Charles Comiskey is 5th from the left. I realize he was a Browns and not a Card, but a St. Louis baseball influence is a baseball influence 🙂 #stlcards #baseball #baseballphotography #baseballhistory

  2. I’m presently working on developing a page dedicated to the career of Pepper Martin with the Cardinals and the Gashouse Gang. In the meantime, here is a link I do have on the Gashouse Gang. #stlcards #baseball #baseballphotography #baseballhistory #stlouis

  3. I get it sounds weird but with the recent passing of Beach Boy Brian Wilson, for whatever reason I think of the eccentric baseball great Rube Waddell, I think they kind of look alike and may have both been on the Autism spectrum, which helps me kind of think of how Rube may have come across in his time. #stlouis #baseball #baseballhistory #baseballphotography #stlcards

  4. Rube Waddell was an imposing figure on the mound, standing at 6’1” and weighing around 210 pounds, which made him a towering presence by the standards of his time. As a left-handed pitcher, his size combined with a deceptive, explosive delivery gave him a distinct advantage. His fastball was known for its speed and movement, and his so his legacy between the lines was for striking out batters #stlcards #baseball #baseballhistory #baseballphotography

  5. Rube Waddell died of tuberculosis at age 37 in 1914. His health had steadily declined, worsened by years of alcoholism. His death marked a sad end to the life of a pitcher whose talent was as remarkable as his personal struggles. #baseball #stlouis #baseballphotography

  6. #FBF - Spinners memories. Jose Iglesias at bat and on base in 2012; the Dog Man (IYKYK) in 2006. See the smokestack in photo no. 2? That's right next to where I live now. Close enough that a Vlad Guerrerro Sr outfield throw could hit LeLacheur from my building. But, alas, no more Spinners. 😢
