The baseball team with a heart

Here’s your daily dose of sweetness:

St. Louis is the greatest baseball city in America. Anyone who’s ever watched a game there knows that.

But this SportsCenter mini-documentary reveals another reason: the Cardinals have a heart, which is why they traded a player last year to Oakland. So he could be near his mother for her last few months.

"It's important to spend time with her, because we're running out of it."
