Bio/Historical NoteIn Game 7 of the World Series on October 10, 1926, Cardinals manager Rogers Hornsby brought in veteran pitcher Grover Cleveland Alexander to quell a Yankees rally.

Alexander pitched shutout ball the rest of the way, as the Cardinals captured their first modern World Series title.
