Say it ain't so!

"La Russa, 67, goes out a champion after leading the Cardinals to a stirring seven-game World Series triumph over the Texas Rangers just days ago. It was his third championship. He also won the 1989 World Series with Oakland and the 2006 Series with St. Louis."

Hall of Fame before McGwire ever sees a sniff of a ballot...

Well earned; probably the most quietly prodigious manager since they were playing "Whitey-Ball" back in the day.

Hell of a career. I thought there was an outside chance of him coming up to the Sox this year.
