(It’s mostly just a dumb joke about saying someone is “with the angels” to mean they have died.)

Which reminds me of this from years ago:

“I always thought Albert Pujols would stay a cardinal for ever, but he’s with the angels now.”

Funniest thing ever written by a baseball reporter

The 2013 Cardinals. He straight up murdered their pitching staff. Was hitting over .700 for the series until they finally decided to intentionally walk him the rest of the series.
