Whitey Herzog

Former Cardinals manager Whitey Herzog will become the 19th major league manager elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and the second Cardinals skipper to be so enshrined.

(Billy Southworth, who managed the Cardinals from 1941 through 1945, winning three pennants and two World Series titles, was inducted in 2008.)

Herzog managed four big-league teams during his 18-year career but is best remembered for his 11 seasons in St. Louis, where his clubs captured three pennants and a memorable 1982 World Series title.

Herzog will join former Chicago Cubs and Montreal Expos slugger Andre Dawson and umpire Doug Harvey as the newest inductees to baseball's hallowed hall.
