Kevin Wheeler compares the philosophies of old school vs new school baseball managers, with talk of Whitey ball and Tony La Russa’s ball clubs. Next, we hear from the 51st manager in St. Louis Cardinals history, Oli Marmol, who speaks with KMOX Sports Director Tom Ackerman about his new role. Oli Marmol was promoted to manager October 25th 2021 after the release of Mike Shildt from managerial duties earlier in the month. "A championship is the goal, and anything less than that, it is a disappointment," Marmol says. Wheeler then discusses: what’s the difference between failure and disappointment? It’s disappointing to go out in the Wild Card game, but it’s not a failure.
