Circa 1922-23 Casey Stengel New York Giants Early Image Breathtaking Original TYPE I Photo

Casey Stengel played outfield for six National League clubs from 1912 to 1925, batting .284 lifetime with a reputation for hustle and humor. His finest moments came as a New York Giant under John McGraw, where he thrived in the 1923 World Series, delivering two clutch game-winning home runs against the Yankees, including a dramatic inside-the-park shot in Game 1. After managing in the minors and a rocky stint with the Dodgers and Braves, he became a Yankees legend, winning seven World Series titles in 12 seasons. He was enshrined into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1966.
