One of my favorite memories of Whitey Herzog was in 2019. Due to health issues, he wasn’t expected to attend an event with Ozzie Smith and me. But then, out of nowhere, he walks in the room. Had someone drop him off and strolled right through Ballpark Village to visit with fans.

Whitey never sugarcoated anything with you and we loved him for it. I was playing in a game at @Cardinals Fantasy Camp and noticed he was behind the backstop, watching. That night, over a beer, I asked him what he thought. "You're my friend," he said. "But you're horseshit."
@Ackerman1120 Whitey was the best…STL was so lucky to have him…a true icon!
