Cardinals™ Fact
During the seventh game of the 1934 World Series, Cardinals Hall of Fame outfielder Joe Medwick’s slide into third base nearly caused a riot. Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis stepped in and removed Medwick from the game (who was replaced by Chick Fullis). Understandably, the Cardinals argued the call, but the controversial decision had little impact on the outcome as St. Louis went on to an 11-0 victory, and another World Series title.
