This Week In Baseball History


Feb 1, 2018

In 1951, Bill Veeck bought the Browns and tried to run the Cardinals out of St. Louis, but was thwarted. The reason why? Cardinals owner Fred Saigh's impending jail term for tax evasion. Mike and Bill go through the truly weird story of how the Cardinals almost left the city for Houston or Milwaukee, and how the Browns eventually were forced to move to Baltimore. Plus, happy birthday Bill White and John Tudor, on a very Cardinals-centric episode!
