About St. Louis Cardinals
Formerly called the Brown Stockings and the Perfectos, the St. Louis Cardinals play at Busch Memorial Stadium in St. Louis, Missouri. The Cardinals? ancestors were the St. Louis Brown Stockings (also known as the Browns), a team that in 1882 became a charter member of the American Association (AA), a league formed to rival the National League. The Browns won four consecutive AA titles from 1885 to 1888, led by two-time batting champion, outfielder Tip O?Neill.
The AA folded in 1891 and the Browns joined the NL the next year. The club changed its name to the Perfectos in 1899, but when team members wore new white and cardinal red uniforms in 1900, they were dubbed Cardinals and the name stuck. The franchise struggled for years, placing no better than third in the league and going through 25 managers from 1892 through 1925.
Hornsby took over as player-manager in 1926 and guided the St. Louis Cardinals to a World Series championship that year. To the outrage of St. Louis fans, he was traded to the New York Giants in 1927. Yet the Cardinals spent much of the 1930s on top of the NL. Powered by the hitting of outfielder Chick Hafey and first baseman Jim
Bottomley, St. Louis won the pennant in 1930 and the World Series in 1931. Second baseman Frankie Frisch was hired as player-manager in 1932 and led the Cardinals to a third World Series victory in 1934. In addition to
Frisch, the 1934 St. Louis Cardinals featured home-run king Ripper Collins, 30-game-winner Dizzy Dean, shortstop Leo
Durocher, stolen-base champion Pepper Martin, and triples leader Ducky
Medwick. The team was dubbed the Gashouse Gang because of its aggressive play and rowdy behavior. During winning streaks, team members refused to change their uniforms, no matter how filthy they became. They also got into fights with other teams and with each other and were sometimes thrown out of hotels.

Much of the St. Louis Cardinals? success was due to the innovations of general manager Branch Rickey, who built a system of minor league farm teams that developed talented, young players. With this system and the power hitting of outfielders ?Stan the Man? Musial and Enos Slaughter, the Cardinals dominated the NL during the 1940s. From 1942 to 1946 the club won four pennants and three World Series. Musial?s offensive skills won him the NL most valuable player (MVP) award in 1944, 1946, and again in 1948, when he led the major leagues in batting, hits, doubles, and triples.
During the 1998 season McGwire and Chicago Cubs outfielder Sammy Sosa both threatened to surpass Maris?s 37-year-old single-season home run record. McGwire broke the record on September 8, 1998, with his 62nd home run, off Cubs pitcher Steve Trachsel. McGwire finished the season with a total of 70 home runs and Sosa finished with 66. In 1999 McGwire hit 65 home runs but the Cardinals finished with a losing record. In 2000 the St. Louis Cardinals won the NL Central Division to earn a postseason berth, but the team lost in the NL Championship Series to the New York Mets.
