Synopsis

As We All Know, St. Louis Is The Best Baseball Town In America, But The City's Major League History Is Not Confined To The Cardinals. For Several Decades, Until The Middle Of The Twentieth Century, St. Louis Fielded A Second Professional Team. True, It Was Mostly A Losing Team, But It Once Featured A First Baseman Who Hit .400, A Legendary Negro League Star, And A Pitcher Who Would Go On To Throw A Perfect Game In The World Series. They Were The St. Louis Browns--the Forerunners Of The Current Baltimore Orioles And A Part Of St. Louis's Rich Baseball History.
