La Russa Inks 2-Year Deal To Remain With Cardinals

After a difficult season in which the Cardinals suffered their worst record in 8 years (78-84) and numerous problems and tragedies, Tony La Russa has put pen to paper and signed for a further 2 years to continue as the Cardinals manager.

La Russa had admitted that the season was a struggle for everyone involved with the ballclub, but the man with the franchise's best record in history had never doubted that he would extend his stay. La Russa also expressed his expectation that his whole coaching staff would remain for the fresh season.

Hopefully he can return along with them in time, despite his brush with the law.
