Baseball teams, alas, DO often need repair. That is when “the manager” becomes “the loneliest guy in town.” The original Maytag Repairman was Jesse White who played “Cagey Calhoun” on The Ann Southern Show. He was later replaced by Gordon Jump a/k/a “Mr. Carlson” from WKRP In Cincinnati. The cool stuff a St. Louis Cardinals fan learns at Redbird Rants.com… Huh?
Mike Matheny is “under the gun” for the Cardinals’ uninspiring anemic offense these days. You and Bill DeWitt and John Mozeliak all know it. Mike Matheny knows it. Mrs Matheny and their children know it.
