DThe Cardinals step in and share some of the glory with the Yankees; each team winning 3 World Series trophies for their cities. The Yankees wind up the decade with their 12th World Series Championship. Enos Slaughter’s “mad dash” in the bottom of the 8th from first to home on a single was the winning run in the 1946 Series. Hank Greenberg powers the Tigers to the 1945 Title. Meanwhile the Dodgers lose their 5th straight World Series in this decade despite a good effort by Pee Wee Reese in their appearances.
