  • Noblest Redbird of Them All

    Noblest Redbird of Them All

    The Noblest Redbird of Them All News of Stan Musialʼs death last Saturday fills me with memories and thoughts, which I now feel impelled to write down, albeit in a rather disorganized way. I was an 8-year-old in St. Louis when Stan joined the Cardinals late in the 1941 season. Although I donʼt think I saw him play in 1941 (he played only 12 games that year), it was my privilege to see him in at least a few games every year of his career after that: 1942-44 and 1946-63. At the time, my brother Bill and I pretty much took this for granted: We loved the Cardinals, went every year to some of their games, and they had this great player. But in later years we have reflected on how unusual it is to be able to follow such a superstar through his whole career, and without making special trips to other towns just for that purpose. Itʼs almost impossible today with superstars changing teams so often, but back then you could do it. From the beginning, Musial put up impressive offensive numbers, but the so-called experts often described his “corkscrew” batting stance as awkward. Well, to us kids at the time, it didnʼt seem awkward at all: Obviously, it was producing better results than other stances, so we tried to imitate it, which is probably one of the reasons why neither I nor any of my friends of that time ever made the major leagues. Stan always claimed that this stance gave him a good view of the strike zone.
