Posted May 10/12 - Wilmont Cardinal Connections Deep for Outlaws

With almost 100 combined years of Wilmont Cardinals playing time on the Outlaws Roster, tonights game in Wilmont is a special night for both teams. 

 

The 2012 Outlaw roster features many former Wilmont Cardinal players.  That fact really isn't a shock to most people, but the Outlaws are visiting Wilmont at 7:00pm tonight.  The game is just an exhibition, but it promises to be a reunion of sorts for many in the Outlaw's dugout. 

On top of the list of former Cardinals now wearing white and black, is Sam Baumgartner.  You could call Sam "Mr. Cardinal" for all the years he played in Wilmont alongside his father and family.  Sammy's name now hangs on Butts Probst Field's outfield fence.  Number 2 was retired last summer and will forever be Sam's Wilmont number.

The Outlaws Roster also includes many other former Wilmont players, brothers Troy and Jeff Appel, Josh Noble, Chris Nelson, Jeff Drent, Chad Lindquist, Chad Wertz and heck...even Robb Larson spent a year wearing Cardinal Maroon and Grey.

Although much of the current Wilmont Roster are youngsters who haven't even heard of many of the above listed names, many Wilmont players are still close friends.  It's crazy to say that two of the current Cardinals Stuart and Blake Rogers, were little bat boys during the tenure of most of the Outlaws Wilmont days.  We will be looking forward to seeing such faces as Saufley, Scheidt, Ahrens (brothers), Rogers (brothers), Swamie, and most of all Jesse "Muff" Teerink. 

Ole Muffy is entering his 17th year of Wilmont Cardinal baseball, now the old guy on the team.  Where have all of the years gone?  One thing is for sure, tonight's game will be a good time filled with many laughs and many beers.  The only odd thing for most of the Outlaws roster will be walking over to that visitor dugout.
