Getting your player ready...
Tony La Russa has managed the St. Louis Cardinals through one of their most prosperous and historically prominent eras. Here’s just a partial accounting of what the team has accomplished during his 16 seasons:
• The most postseason wins (50) by a National League team. That’s 12 more than Atlanta, the next NL team on the list.
• The most postseason series won by an NL team, 12. That’s five more than the next team on the list, Atlanta.
• Most NL pennants, with three.
• Two World Series championships, tied with Florida for most in the NL since 1996.
• A total of 1,408 regular-season wins, second in the NL to Atlanta’s 1,478. St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Photo by Getty Images
