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, as St. Louis had fought a long, close race with Cincinnati and New York had 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 of baseball history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47580265054359,"sku":"9780786446575","price":2823.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780786446575.webp?v=1774912243","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-cardinals-and-the-yankees-1926-a-classic-season-and-st-louis-in-seven-9780786446575","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
