	Jackie Robinson should be an answer for 42, it was retired for him before it was retired for Sutter.

	beckleyman:	Dec 4th, 2008 at 20:07 GMT		2 points
	yes, Robinson should be an answer for any team, as no one is allowed to wear that number anymore.

	Except for Mariano Rivera...he still rocks the #42. But i think he's the only one left

	Bruce Sutter had the #42 retired for him as well as Jackie Robinson.. since Sutter was more of a Cardinal that is why he is included in this quiz

	Surprised that a couple haven't been retired by the Cardinals; Medwick and Hornsby come to mind.

	im 90% sure that rogers hornsby needs to be on there, you should change it so he is on there

	Did they retire McGwire's syringe?

	I don't dispute that Sutter should be an accepted answer to this quiz as well, but Robinson definitely should be an alternate answer that is also accepted since the number was retired for him for every team, including the Cardinals (and in fact was retired for the Cardinals before Sutter).

	Hornsby is retired by the Cardinals, but his number is not since he never wore a number for the Cards. If anything he should be a bonus answer.

	you should get extra credit for spelling red schoendienst correct,or they should at least give you partial credit if you try 10-15 times to spell it and get within a couple letters each time :) Hornsby wore number 4 for the Cardinals briefly in 1933,his 2nd go around with the team

	Finally! The Cardinals Quiz! Hornsby should be listed with the above since he is retired. Also, Jack Buck should be added as a hidden answer. He was a long-time announcer for the Cards and is included at Busch Stadium along with the retired numbers, being signified by a microphone. Gussie Busch wasn't a player either, so they are pretty much in the same boat, minus the fact that Buck's isn't an actual number.

	How in the heck did Joe Medwick not get his number retired? He's in the Hall of Fame. Or did they not have numbers back then?

	ku_sucks:	Dec 5th, 2008 at 20:11 GMT		3 points
	i have to agree with jaspa. i can't stand the cardinals, but i have been to plenty of their games, and jack buck should definitely be a bonus answer, as his microphone is listed among the retired numbers. as for medwick, i don't think he had a number, and that was apparently enough to keep him off the cardinals list.

	Hornsby is a bonus answer, he didn't have a number to retire.

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Jan 25th, 2009 at 06:52 GMT		0 points
	I can't believe they haven't retired Lonnie Smith's number yet.

	DerKomissar:	Jun 14th, 2009 at 14:26 GMT		2 points
	I could've sworn they retired Darryl Kile's number after his tragic death.

	Also, Medwick should have a statue with the other Redbird greats on the stadium plaza. Hall of Famer, last NL player to win the triple crown.

	@GeoExpert: How can you argue against 10 rings? (second only to those damn yankees)

	Between the time Slaughter and his number retired, Roger Maris wore #9 for the Birds on the Bat, although he does not share the recognition. Bud Smith drew a lot of flack for wearing #51.

	My question - who are the 14% of people who decided "I want to take the time to attempt a quiz on the St. Louis Cardinals retired numbers" and don't come up with Stan Musial?

	challie:	Jun 23rd, 2010 at 08:16 GMT		1 point
	#42 here: shouldn't your number only be retired for the team where you played the most seasons? Was a longer-time Cub than a Cardinal.

	Can't believe I forgot Sutter. Great quiz. Glad Robinson is only a bonus answer (also glad he is acknowledged).

	rwigram:	Aug 18th, 2011 at 17:31 GMT		1 point
	@challi-why can't any team retire any players number for any reason they want? Or rather, they can. Why do you object to that?

	Rocky123:	Apr 19th, 2012 at 12:25 GMT		2 points
	Oh, so the franchise with the 2nd most world series titles including 2 of the last 6 is the worst franchise ever. Silly me.
