Description: Unique item. This is a signed 7 x 10.5 inch B/W magazine photo depicting the Leo Durocher surprise 1934 scoring crucial run. The St. Louis Cardinals team were called the "Gashouse Gang". They roared through the 1934 season, building a legend that will always last. They fought opponents, they fought among themselves. They were as wild off the field as on it--and on it, they played not to win, but to destroy. Leo Ernest Durocher (French spelling Léo Ernest Durocher); July 27, 1905 – October 7, 1991), nicknamed "Leo the Lip" and "Lippy", was an American professional baseball player, manager and coach. He played in Major League Baseball as an infielder. Upon his retirement, he ranked fifth all-time among managers with 2,008 career victories, second only to John McGraw in National League history. Durocher still ranks twelfth in career wins by a manager. A controversial and outspoken character, Durocher's half-century in baseball was dogged by clashes with authority, the baseball commissioner, the press, and umpires; his 95 career ejections as a manager trailed only McGraw when he retired, and still ranks fourth on the all-time list.Durocher was posthumously elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1994.
