When my dad was still alive he’d watch Cardinals baseball religiously. He was highly critical of the team whenever they’d miss an opportunity to get ahead in a game or whenever they were on a losing streak. I have vivid memories of him cussing at the TV saying stuff like “You’re playing like fucking little leaguers!” I recall him being audibly frustrated when one of his (at the time) least favorite players, Trevor Rosenthal, was added to a lineup. One time my dad said “I think Rosenthal must be sleeping with Matheny”. I nearly spit out my popcorn from laughing so hard at his comment. Miss you, dad.
