Condolences to the Herzog family and Cardinals Nation. He invented, mastered and patented Whitey Ball. He wasn´t just a baseball HOF member, he was a first class HOF person.

The Cardinals won the series after my last year of high school. I enjoyed the continued success he had with them in 1985 and 1987. His live interview after the loss to the Royals showed how fearless he was. I saw him at Anaheim Stadium after moving to LA just before he took the GM job with the Angels. He was very polite and spoke despite passing me by in a deep conversation with someone. I was big fan of the Cardinal players m; but a bigger fan of him because of his leadership style. RIP...

Whitey signed my autograph book and then handed it to Al Kaline to sign! I was so thrilled my first autograph from a major league player! RIP and God Bless your family! Forever your fan Paul Scott

I am 71 years old and have always loved my St. Louis Cardinals!!!

My Daddy got excited telling me what happened next. Whitey Herzog came into the theatre and sat with them. They pulled up a game, and Whitey called the game for the whole film! Daddy and Mama were thrilled! And now they are thrilled to see...
