Hrabosky-LaRussa spat among 2009 Cardinal moments

• A memorable 2009 moment for St. Louis Cardinals fans, Cardinals TV analyst Al Hrabosky got into a verbal spat with manager Tony La Russa in mid season:

"Hrabosky criticized catcher Yadier Molina for not running out a fly ball with the bases loaded.

• La Russa said Hrabosky "should be ashamed of himself" and that "I'm really disappointed in Al" and also said "I know this club hustles. I know Yadier hustles.

• And if it's unforgivable if once in a while some guy has a breakdown ... then someone has forgotten how this game is played."

Hrabosky shot back: "I guess I'm going to ask him for the list of who is tired and who is hurt, so I'll know how he wants me to do my job.''

• They eventually reached a truce."
