Bio

Whitey Herzog Booking Agent Details

Whitey Herzog is a former MLB manager who is best remembered for leading the St. Louis Cardinals from 1980-1990. Previously, he managed the Kansas City Royals (1975-1979), California Angels (1974) and Texas Rangers (1973). Herzog was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2010 and is also a member of both the Cardinals and Royals Hall of Fames.

In 1982, his third season at the helm of the Cardinals, he led the team to a 90-72 record and eventual World Series title as St. Louis defeated the Milwaukee Brewers in seven games to win that year’s Fall Classic on a team that featured the likes of Keith Hernandez and Ozzie Smith. Herzog’s also managed the Cardinals to additional National League pennants in 1985 and 1987. In 1983, the New York Times ran a poll among active MLB players and Herzog was voted the best manager in baseball. St. Louis retired his jersey #24 in 2010.

Prior to managing the Cardinals, from 1976-1978 Herzog enjoyed success in Kansas City and skippered the George Brett-led Royals to three consecutive A.L. West Division titles. Herzog enjoyed a playing career himself from 1956-1963 with the Washington Senators (1956-1958), Kansas City Athletics (1958-1960), Baltimore Orioles (1961-1962) and Detroit Tigers (1963). After his playing days ended, Herzog spent two years working for the Athletics, first as a scout and later as a coach. From 1967-1973, Herzog worked for the New York Mets, including a stint as third base coach before becoming director of player development where he helped assemble teams that captured World Series titles in 1969 and 1973.
