“The Mad Hungarian” – A Nickname That’s More Than a Name, It’s a Legend
With the nickname “The Mad Hungarian,” Hrabosky was more than just a pitcher; he was the embodiment of the emotion, passion, and indomitability of the 1970s Cardinals. The audience at Busch Stadium will never forget the image of him talking to himself before each pitch: turning his back, talking to himself, slapping his glove, and then shooting the ball as if the whole world were against him.

From 1970–1977, Hrabosky had:
A career ERA of just 2.93 for the Cardinals
A remarkable 59 saves
Lead the NL in saves in 1975
Elected to the 1976 All-Star Game
But above all, he brought an identity that not every pitcher could inspire.

After retiring from the field, Al Hrabosky never left the Cardinals. He became one of the team’s most incisive, accessible, and sincere commentators. With his husky voice and direct gaze, he spoke for fans what players sometimes didn’t dare say.

This morning, the Cardinals officially announced:

“Happy Birthday to ‘The Mad Hungarian’ and our newest Cardinals Hall of Famer, Al Hrabosky!”
Busch Stadium exploded with the news. Those who had witnessed his crazy pitching, young people who only knew him from television – all said in unison: It’s time. It’s been a long time coming.

Bill DeWitt Jr., Cardinals owner, said:

“Al was more than a player, he was an icon. He taught us that baseball is more than just a number – it’s a soul.”
