Blossom, Cleveland, Ohio Live 1981
For one person in the Heartland, the excitement of the Cardinals in the World Series is more personal than most. Bob Sykes pitched for the St. Louis Cardinals from 1979 to 1981.
These days, the field where Bob Sykes spends most of his time is much bigger than the one he used to pitch on. Still the thrill at Busch Stadium is not far from his heart.
"I wish sometimes the fields I pitched in were as big as the fields I spread in, maybe some of those balls would have stayed in the park," Sykes said.
That was some 30 years ago. But Sykes says, even to this day he's still treated like family by the Cardinals.
"The Cardinals are in the World Series, come out of nowhere, I get a call, tickets," Sykes said.
Sykes had never been to a World Series, so he took up the offer and headed to game one.
"It was exciting, I didn't want to leave," Sykes said.
Sykes says he's watched the rest of the games glued to the television. He says it's where he prefers to watch baseball, and is taking note of some much bigger life lessons.
