Gardella Joins Cardinals After Long Baseball Suit
In St Louis, Daniel Gardella’s $300,000 damage suit against organized baseball ends with him assigned to the Cardinals. The Bronx Italiano, once viewed as trouble, is praised by Eddie Dyer as cooperative and well-read. Gardella will likely report to a Triple A affiliate, Rochester or Columbus, aiming to return to form at age 30 after a four year layoff. Gardella’s case affirmed the commissioner’s limited reach to organized baseball and showcased his value as a left handed outfielder who batted .272 with 18 home runs in 1945.
