The 1982 St. Louis Cardinals were a thrilling team to watch, known for their fast-paced and defensive-minded style of play. Led by the visionary Whitey Herzog, the team was built to excel on the AstroTurf and spacious dimensions of Busch Stadium. Herzog made several key trades, acquiring closer Bruce Sutter, speedsters Lonnie Smith and Willie McGee, and defensive wizard Ozzie Smith, among others. The result was an exhilarating season filled with winning streaks, numerous obstacles, and one unforgettable steal of home. Despite hitting the fewest home runs in the major leagues, the Cardinals won the National League pennant and went on to defeat the Milwaukee Brewers in the World Series. This comprehensive account chronicles the Cardinals' journey from Herzog's rebuild to the final out of the Fall Classic, featuring hundreds of sources, including original interviews, to revisit a championship season and tell the backstories of an eclectic group of players who reached baseball's pinnacle.
