TRIVIA

  • In an unusual move, the Yankees fired Yogi Berra after the Series ended, replacing him with Johnny Keane , who had resigned from the Cardinals.

  • For the first time in the Series, all six umpires rotated through the infield positions. In all Series from 1947 through 1963, only the four infield umpires had rotated, with the last two umpires working only in the outfield throughout the Series.

  • The St Louis Cardinals are the only team that have played the New York Yankees more than once in a World Series with a winning series record: winning 3 (1926, 1942, 1964) while losing only 2 (1928, 1943).

  • Mickey Mantle , playing in his last Series, hit three home runs, raising his total to a record-setting 18.
