Description
Book SynopsisMost St. Louis Cardinals fans have taken in a game or two at Busch Stadium, have seen highlights of a young Ozzie Smith, and enjoyed Matt Carpenter’s salsa-induced hot streak in 2018. But only real fans have visited “Trinket City,” know the origin of the Redbird logo, or understand the significance of the number 1.12.
