Herzog Changed Cards 'Forever'
St. Louis Post Dispatch, April 17, 2024
Whitey Herzog was a Mets nemesis for many years as he served as a long-time manager for the rival Cardinals. He also managed the Rangers, Angels, and Royals. Prior to that, he was the Mets Director of Player Development and contributed to the championship teams of 1969 and 1973. This is his obituary.
