Highlights:
A closed circuit TV system is installed for fans in the
concession stands. Also, a new paint job for some areas of the stadium
as well as new lights.
Mike Laga becomes the only player to ever hit a ball completely
out of Busch Stadium during a game. It was a foul ball that left the
ballpark approximately two-thirds of the way down the right field line.
Todd Worrell became the Cardinals’ second
straight Rookie of the Year award winner, setting a Rookie record with 36
saves. Vince Coleman became the only NL player to steal 100+ bases in more
than one season.
Todd Worrell becomes the first person to earn both the
Rookie of the Year and the Rolaids Relief Man awards.
Vince Coleman becomes the first Cardinal to have three
sacrifice flies in one game.
(5/1)
Benches clear in a game against the Giants on
