Catch either a Red Birds game (Cardinals AAA franchise) in Memphis or a Cardinals game in St. Louis. I think that going through St. Louis is going to be out of your way??
Memphis BBQ - I recommend the Commissary on Germantown Road. It is in Germantown and mostly just a locals joint.
If you pass through Franklin, TN, then maybe a trip to the Carter House. Although a little bit of the battlefield has been reclaimed, there isn't much left to commemorate the slaughter in Franklin, thanks to John Bell Hood. The Carter House has a lot of interpretation and is good for an hour or two.
