Background
editBoston Red Sox
editThe "Impossible Dream" Red Sox were led bytriple crownwinnerCarl Yastrzemski(who won theMost Valuable Playeraward for his 1967 performance) and ace pitcherJim Lonborg,who won the American LeagueCy Young Award.The Red Sox reached the World Series by emerging victorious from a dramatic four-team pennant race that revitalized interest in the team after eight straight losing seasons. Going into the last week of the season, the Red Sox,Detroit Tigers,Minnesota Twins,andChicago White Soxwere all within one game of each other in the standings. The White Sox lost their last five games (two to the lowlyKansas City Athleticsand three to the similarly ineptWashington Senators) to fall out of the race. Meanwhile, the Red Sox and Twins met in Boston for the final two games of the season, with Minnesota—who won the ALPennanttwo years earlier—holding a one-game lead. Boston swept the Twins, but needed to wait out the result of the Tigers' doubleheader with theCalifornia Angelsin Detroit. A Detroit sweep would have enabled them to tie the Red Sox for first place. The Tigers won the first game but the Angels won thenightcap,enabling the Red Sox to claim their first pennant since 1946.
St. Louis Cardinals
editThe Cardinals won 101 games en route to theNational Leaguepennant,with a team featuringAll-StarsOrlando Cepeda(selected as the National League Most Valuable Player),Lou Brock,Tim McCarver,and 1964 World Series MVPBob Gibson,as well as former two-time American League MVPRoger MarisandCurt Flood.Twenty-two-year-oldSteve Carltonwon 14 games in his first full major league season, beginning what was to be a lengthy and very successful career. The Cardinals overcame the absence of Bob Gibson, who missed almost one-third of the season with a broken leg on July 15 (ondisabled list,July 16 – September 6) suffered when he was struck by a ball hit by Pittsburgh's Roberto Clemente. Gibson still managed to win 13 games, and while he was out,Nelson Brilesfilled his spot in the rotation brilliantly, winning nine consecutive games as the Cardinals led the N.L. comfortably for most of the season, eventually winning by10+1⁄2games over theSan Francisco Giants.
Summary
editPitching dominated this World Series, withBob Gibsonleading the Cardinals. Lonborg pitched the decisive final game of the regular season for Boston, so he was unable to start Game 1. FacingJosé Santiago,Gibson and St. Louis won the Series opener, 2–1. Maris (obtained from theNew York Yankeesin December 1966) knocked in both of St. Louis' runs with third and seventh-inning grounders. Santiago pitched brilliantly and homered in the third inning off Gibson for the Red Sox' only run.
Gibson cemented his reputation as an unhittable postseason pitcher in this series, allowing only three total runs over three complete games. His efforts allowed the Cardinals to triumph despite the hitting of Yastrzemski (.500OBP,.840SLG), and pitching of Lonborg, who allowed only one run total in his complete-game wins in Games 2 and 5. In Game 2, Yastrzemski belted two homers but the story was Lonborg. The Boston ace retired the first 19 Cardinals he faced until he walked Curt Flood with one out in the seventh inning. He had a no-hitter untilJulián Javierdoubled down the left field line with two out in the eighth. Lonborg settled for a one-hit shutout in which he faced only 29 batters.
In St. Louis, the El Birdos (as Cepeda had nicknamed them) took Games 3 and 4, with Briles pitching the home team to a 5–2 victory (a two-run homer byMike Shannonproved to be the decisive factor), and Gibson tossing a 6–0 whitewashing (with two RBIs apiece by Maris and McCarver). With the Cardinals leading 3 games to 1, Lonborg kept the Bosox in the series with a 3–1 victory in Game 5. The 25-year-old righthander tossed two-hit shutout ball over8+2⁄3innings, then finally gave up a run when Maris homered to right.
Going for the clincher atFenway Parkin Game 6, the visiting team took a 2–1 lead going into the fourth inning whenDick Hughes(who led the National League with a.727 winning percentage and won 16 games during the regular season) gave up a record three homers in a single inning. Yastrzemski led off the inning with a long drive over the wall in left center and, two outs later, rookieReggie SmithandRico Petrocellihammered consecutive shots. Brock tied the game with a two-run homer in the seventh, but Boston responded with four runs of their own in the bottom of that inning and went on for the 8–4 triumph to tie the series at three games all. The Cardinals set a World Series record using eight pitchers.
The decisive Game 7 featured Gibson and Lonborg facing each other for the first time in the series, but Lonborg was starting on only two days' rest and was unable to compete with Gibson, who allowed only three hits over the course of a complete game. Going into Game 7, both pitchers were 2–0 in the series with Gibson giving up four hits in 18 innings and Lonborg surrendering a single run and four hits in his 18. Something had to give—and it was Lonborg. The Cardinal ace clearly dominated the finale, allowing only three hits, striking out 10 batters and even adding a home run blast of his own in the fifth. Javier added a three-run shot off Lonborg in the sixth and Gibson cruised to the decisive 7–2 victory. He now boasted a 5–1 record and a 2.00 ERA in two World Series, with 57 strikeouts in 54 innings and only 37 hits allowed.

In attendance for the opening match-up were SenatorsRobert F. KennedyandTed Kennedy,bothMassachusettsnatives and supporters of the Red Sox.[8]
AceBob Gibson(13–7, 2.98), who sat out July and August with a broken leg, started Game 1 for the Cardinals while 21-year-oldJosé Santiago(12–4, 3.59) started for the Red Sox. Santiago, starting because Sox aceJim Lonborghad pitched the final day of the regular season, won seven straight second-half games helping Boston stave off theDetroit TigersandMinnesota Twinsto win the pennant by one game in a tightly fought race.
Pitching was prime as Gibson and Santiago seemed to have their beststufffor this afternoon game at Fenway. The Cards got on the board in the top of the third on a leadoff single to center byLou Brock,a double byCurt Flood,and aRoger Marisgroundout to first scoring Brock from third. The Sox came right back to tie the score in the bottom of the same inning. After Bob Gibson struck out Red Sox catcherRuss Gibson,Santiagohelped his own causeby homering to left center field.
However, Bob Gibson was masterful the rest of the way finishing with ten strikeouts, allowing just six hits with one walk. Santiago matched Gibson until the top of the seventh when Brock again led off with a single to right (his fourth hit), promptly stole second base, and eventually scored on back-to-back groundouts by Flood and Maris. That run would hold up for a 2–1 Cardinal win, but Lonborg was waiting in the wings to start Game 2.

Jim Lonborgenjoyed his best season as a professional in 1967 capturing theCy Young Awardwith an A.L. best 22 wins (against nine losses), was tops with 246 strikeouts, and had an impressiveearned run averageof 3.16. Lonborg continued his superb pitching starting Game 2 for the Red Sox and for7+2⁄3innings, the Cardinals could only manage one baserunner, a seventh inning walk byCurt Flood.AfterTim McCarverandMike Shannonled off the eighth with groundouts,Julián Javierturned a Lonborg fastball around, lining a double into the left-field corner breaking up hisno-hitter.Bobby Tolan,pinch-hitting for weak-hittingDal Maxvill,ended the inning by grounding out to second-base. Lonborgretired the sidein order in the ninth ending the game as close to perfect, giving up just one hit and one walk while striking out four.
Carl Yastrzemskiprovided more than enough offense by homering in the fourth and adding a three-run shot in the seventh (scoringJose TartabullandDalton Jones.) The other Red Sox run came in the sixth inning on walks toGeorge ScottandReggie Smithand a sacrifice-fly by shortstopRico Petrocelli.The final score was 5–0 to even up the series at one game apiece with an upcoming journey to St. Louis for Game 3.

WP:Nelson Briles(1–0)LP:Gary Bell(0–1) Home runs: BOS:Reggie Smith(1) STL:Mike Shannon(1) Boxscore |
After "Sleepwalking in Boston", theSt. Louis Cardinalscame out of their hitting slumber and tagged Boston starterGary Bellfor three runs on five hits in the first two innings of Game 3. A former 16-game winner for theCleveland Indians,Bell was an early-season pickup who pitched well in 29 games for the Sox going 12–8 with an ERA of 3.16. But he didn't have his best stuff against the Cardinals' starter, 23-year-oldNelson Briles.Briles, after losing 15 games in 1966, alternated between middle-relief and starting pitching in '67, and finished with a neat 14-win, five-loss record (.737 winning percentage—best in the N.L.) and an even neater 2.43 ERA.
The great table-setterLou Brockstarted things rolling in the first with a triple to left-center.Curt Floodfollowed with a single to center scoring Brock for the game's first run. In the second,Tim McCarverled off with a single to center followed by aMike Shannonhome run to left. IneffectiveGary Bellwas pinch-hit for in the third inning, replaced byGary Waslewski.Waslewski pitched three perfect innings, striking out three before leaving in the sixth for relief pitcherLee Stange.
Boston scored their first run in the sixth withMike Andrews,(pinch-hitting for Bell), singling to center. Andrews took second on a Tartabull sacrifice, immediately scoring on aDalton Jonesbase hit to right. But the Cards added someinsurancein the bottom of the frame with the disconcerting Brock bunting for a hit, eventually going to third when Stange, attempting a pick-off, threw wild into right-field.Roger Maris,in his next-to-last season, would have a good Series with ten hits and a home run, scored Brock with a single to right-center.
In the seventhReggie Smithhit a lead-off home run for Boston, trimming the score to 4–2 but the Cards stifled any further Sox comeback scoring their fifth run in the bottom of the eighth when Maris beat out an infield tap for a single andOrlando Cepedamuscled a double off the wall in right-center making the score 5–2. Briles would finish his complete-game victory with a 1–2–3 ninth, the second out recorded whenReggie Smithwould interfere with McCarver who was trying to catch his pop-up foul down the first-base line. Up two games to one, St. Louis would sendBob Gibsonback to the mound, a championship within reach.

54,000 plus fans packedBusch Memorial Stadiumin anticipation of yet anotherBob Gibsonpost-season, pitching gem. Again, all St. Louis needed was a spark fromLou Brockand this time four runs crossed the plate in the first inning. Brock started things rolling with a slow-roller to third—nothingDalton Jonescould do could match Brock's speed, for an infield-hit.Curt Floodsingled to shallow left andRoger Marispowered-up going the other way, doubling into the left-field corner scoring both base-runners.Orlando Cepedathen flied out, Maris advancing to third.Tim McCarverhit a clutch single to right to score Maris. AfterMike Shannonfouled out toRico Petrocellifor the second out,Julián Javierwould single in the hole between short and third followed by.217 lifetime hitterDal Maxvill's run-scoring single to left for the Cardinals' fourth run. That would be it for Game 1 starterJosé Santiagowho would only last two-thirds of an inning this time out.Gary Bellwould relieve, getting the ninth batter of the inning,Bob Gibsonto fly out to left.
Gibson would be on cruise-control the remainder of the game while the Cards would add two more runs off relieverJerry Stephensonin the third. Cepeda would double into the left-field corner and move to third on a wild pitch. McCarver would add a second RBI on a sac-fly to center scoring Cepeda. Shannon would walk and score on aJulián Javierdouble just inside the third-base line. That would be it for the scoring as Gibson would win his second Series game, a five-hit complete-game that put his Cardinals up, three games to one.

WP:Jim Lonborg(2–0)LP:Steve Carlton(0–1) Home runs: BOS: None STL:Roger Maris(1) Boxscore |
With their backs up against the wall, managerDick Williamsagain put his trust in the dependableJim Lonborg.The 25-year-old righty was faced bySteve "Lefty" Carlton.Carlton was 14–9 in 30 games with a 2.98 ERA, striking out 168 in 193 innings during the regular season.
The game played out very tentatively, with just one early run scored by Boston in the top of the third. After Lonborg struck out leading off the inning,Joe Foystruck a single to left field.Mike Andrewsreached safely at first after a sacrifice attempt was fumbled by Cardinal third-basemanMike Shannonfor an error. With two on and one out, team heroCarl Yastrzemskilooked at a third strike for the second out, butKen Harrelsonfollowed with a clutch single to left, scoring Foy. This would be enough to saddle Carlton with the loss.
Pitching with a slight cold (and a paper horseshoe in his back pocket) Lonborg again sparkled, at one point retiring 12 straight. After aRoger Marissingle in the fourth, the next batter to reach base wasJulián Javier,who got on base in the eighth on an error byRico Petrocelli.Carlton was just as good but left after six innings of work and would take the loss despite having no earned runs (the run in the third was unearned). He was replaced byRay Washburn,who then pitched two scoreless innings.
St. Louis ManagerRed Schoendienstbrought inRon Willisto pitch the ninth. The Red Sox greeted Willis by loading the bases on aGeorge Scottwalk, aReggie Smithdouble, and an intentional walk to Petrocelli.Jack Lamaberelieved Willis after a 1–0 count onElston Howardwho promptly popped a single to right scoring Scott. Maris threw high to the plate, allowing Smith to score the second run. With the score 3–0, St. Louis came to bat in the last of the ninth in a last attempt comeback bid. But Lonborg's luck continued, getting Brock and Flood to ground out to second and third respectively. Maris spoiled the shutout bid by homering over the right-field fence butOrlando Cepedaended the game on a ground-out to third. The Red Sox were now back in the Series, although still down three games to two.

Pivotal Game 6 matched rookieGary Waslewski(2–2, 3.21) who had only pitched in 12 regular season games, versus one-year wonderDick Hughes(16–6, 2.67) who pitched three seasons, winning only twice more in 1968 before retiring due to arm problems.
Rico Petrocelligave the Red Sox an early lead with a second inning blast over theGreen Monsterin left field. St. Louis came back with two runs in the top of the third whenJulián Javierhit a lead-off double off that sameGreen Monster.After retiring the next two batters, Waslewski gave up a single toLou Brock,scoring Javier. Then after a Brock steal,Curt Floodsingled to left, scoring Brock.
In the Sox half of the fourth,Carl Yastrzemski,Reggie Smith,andRico Petrocelliwould all go deep setting a newWorld Seriesrecord with three home runs in the same inning. A demoralized Hughes wouldn't finish the inning andRon Williswould be summoned from the bullpen to get the last out, anElston Howardgroundout to third.
Waslewski was very workmanlike, but started to tire in the sixth inning when, after giving up two walks, was replaced byJohn Wyattwho would get out of the jam retiringMike Shannonon a popup to short and Javier on a fly to short right. The Cards would come back and hit Wyatt hard in the seventh. After pinch-hitterBobby Tolanwalked,Lou Brockhit a homer into the right-center field bleachers. Flood and Maris hit long fly-outs to center but their hits stayed in the park to end the inning, St. Louis had tied the score at four apiece.
The Red Sox would send ten batters to the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning and regain the lead. Elston Howard would lead off making both the first and last outs but four runs would cross the plate in-between. After all was said and done, the Cardinals would send four pitchers to the mound in the inning and whenHal Woodeshickwould come into pitch the eighth, a Series record would be tied with eight (8) pitchers used also setting a two team record of 11 pitchers used. St. Louis had one more good chance to win the game loading the bases in the eighth, but highlighted by a great Yastrzemski catch in left-center, the Cards couldn't push one across and wouldn't score again going quietly in the ninth; withGary Bellpitching the last two innings for the save. The Red Sox survived to play another day and the Series was now tied at three games apiece. Wyatt took the win andJack Lamabe,who was the first pitcher for the Cardinals in the eighth, would be given the loss.

Theseventh gamefinally matched up the aces,Bob GibsonagainstJim Lonborg.Lonborg was pitching on two-days rest, while Gibson had rested an extra day since his last outing. Only once before had a seventh game of a Series brought together starting pitchers who both had 2–0 records in the Series—in1925,when theWashington Senators'Walter Johnsonpitched against thePittsburgh Pirates'Vic Aldridge.The Cardinals players were angered by the quip "Lonborg and Champagne" which was Dick Williams' response when asked after Game 6 who was to be the Red Sox starting pitcher for the Series-deciding contest and theheadlinedominating the front page of Boston'sRecord Americanthe morning of Game 7.[9][10]
From the start, it was apparent that Lonborg was struggling. Three Cardinal hits and a wild pitch put St. Louis ahead 2–0 in the third inning. Two more scored in the fifth on a home run by Gibson,Lou Brock's single and two stolen bases (his seventh steal—a new Series record), and aRoger Marissacrifice-fly to right. A Boston run in the fifth cut the score to 4–1, but the Red Sox dream was abruptly halted in the sixth on a three-run homer byJulián Javieroff the arm-weary Lonborg. With the 7–2 defeat, Boston's "Impossible Dream" ended one win short, and the St. Louis Cardinals were World Series Champions for the second time in the 1960s, and eighth overall.

Aftermath
editThe 1967 Series was the first non-exhibition meeting betweenMajor League Baseballteams from St. Louis and Boston since the departures of theBoston BravesandSt. Louis Brownsfollowing (respectively) the 1952 and 1953 seasons ended regular season meetings between teams from those cities (Braves vs Cardinals, Browns vs Red Sox). It also marked the last time that a St. Louis-based team defeated a Boston-based team in the championship round of any professional sport until 2019 when theSt. Louis Bluesdefeated theBoston Bruins4 games to 3 in theStanley Cup Finals.In the1970 Stanley Cup Finalsthe Bruins swept the Blues withBobby Orrscoring the memorable series-winning goal in overtime in Game 4. TheNew England Patriotsfollowed suit by defeating theSt. Louis Rams' "Greatest Show on Turf"team 20–17 inSuper Bowl XXXVIafter the2001 NFL season,with kickerAdam Vinatieriscoring the game-winning field goal on the final play. In the2004 World Series,the Red Sox swept the Cardinals in four to break theCurse of the Bambino,then bested them again in six gamesnine years later.In theNBA Finals,theBoston CelticsandSt. Louis Hawksmet four times in five years, with the Celtics winning in 1957, 1960 and 1961 and the Hawks winning in 1958. (The Hawks moved to Atlanta in 1968.)
This was the first year since 1948 that neither theYankees,nor theGiants,nor theDodgersplayed in the World Series. It would be another seven years before the Dodgers would return to the series and nine before the Yankees came back. The Giants would not play again in a World Series until1989.
This was the Cardinals' first World Series that was not played inSportsman's Park,which had closed partway through the1966 season.It was the first of six played inBusch Memorial Stadium,also known as Busch Stadium II, which opened in 1966 to replace Sportsman's Park (which had been renamed Busch Stadium in 1953).
This would be the Cardinals second and final World Series win of the 1960s.The next year,they lost toDetroitin seven games. St. Louis wouldn't get back to the World Series until1982when they beatMilwaukee.
