The Cardinals and the Yankees, 1926 - Paul E. Doutrich - Bog

- A Classic Season and St. Louis in Seven

Bag om The Cardinals and the Yankees, 1926

The two pennant winners in 1926, the National League's Cardinals and the American League's Yankees, were a study in contrasts. The Yankees were heavily composed of first- and second-generation Americans and based in New York, the epicenter of baseball; the Cardinals, on the other hand, were mostly a collection of farm boys playing at the western fringe of the major leagues. But both teams arrived battle-tested, St. Louis having fought a long, close race with Cincinnati, New York having survived a dramatic late-season run by Cleveland. Their classic World Series meeting went seven games and produced one of the legendary pitcher-batter confrontations in baseball history.
