This is the 1st cache in a series celebrating the St. Louis Cardinal's World Series wins over the years. Each cache in this collection is placed in a location that is within view of a baseball diamond.
The Cardinals faced George Herman Ruth, Jr. and the rest of the New York Yankees in the1926 World Series. According to newspaper reports, Babe Ruth promised a sickly boy named Johnny Sylvester that he would hit a home run for him in Game 4--and he did! After Ruth's 3-run homer, the boy's condition miraculously improved. The newspapers' account of the story is disputed by some baseball historians, but it's still a great story. Despite the efforts of The Great Bambino, the Cards won the series in 7 games.
