Highlights:

 

The area of most concern heading into the season, the offense, turned out to be the most productive area of the team in 1993.  The offense scored more runs and hit more home runs than other Cardinals' teams did in a long time.  However, the starting pitching fell apart in the second half of the season.  Injuries played a big part.

Gregg Jefferies led the team in stolen bases (46), batting average (.342), on-base percentage (.408), and slugging percentage (.485).

On Sept. 7th Mark Whitten hit four HRs and had 12 RBIs in one game.  Both of these feats tied a National League record.

Ozzie Smith had 19 errors, but had a strong offensive year batting .288 with 53RBIs.

The Cards made a run at the Phillies in late July, but the pitching didn't hold up.  They eventually let Montreal move into second place.
