Lou Brock. Not a good week for Hall of Famers.
'67 hooked me on baseball, so the '67 world series stands out in my mind.  He and Gibson killed the Red Sox.  That Cards team also had Curt Flood and the tail end of Maris (McCarver at the start of his career, too).  Red Sox team had RoTY runner up Reggie Smith (Carew was RoTY), Cy Young Jim Lonborg, Triple Crown Yaz, and was Dick Williams first pennant winner.
