A one-way snap-in bearing cage providing a substantially annular backbone, and a hanging-out portion extending from the backbone to one axial side, the hanging-out portion having pockets, which are distributed at intervals in a circumferential direction and used to accommodate spherical rollers, and pocket connections for connecting adjacent pockets. The pocket, at least in the vicinity of a radial inner edge at an opening side of the pocket, employs an expanding design achieving remoteness from a surface of the roller.
