After injuring his foot against the Cincinatti Reds in the 2013 season, Allen Craig was never quite the same hitter. But before he rode off into the sunset, he had one last memory to give to the Cardinal faithful, one last gift. If this were a true Western, it would be the part like in The Outlaw Josey Wales where Josey, Lone Watie, and Laura Lee and her grandma take their stand on their farm against Capitan Terrill and his Kansas Brigade Redlegs. Wales is badly injured, but successful in defending the farm, and is able to live his life in peace after the locals he befriended tell the rangers looking for him that he is dead.
