10/27/1910 - 9 Years Later
9 years, 7 winning seasons, and five World Series appearances before I was able to finally win a World Series with the Browns before knocking off the Pirates in seven games.
There were too many trades to count, multiple managers and only one player - The Only Nolan, who made it through each of the 9 years. His 211 career wins are the most in history, and Nolan is still the only 200 game winner after 10 seasons of stats. At 33 years old he may never get to 300 wins, but he certainly was my most valuable pitcher over the 9 years. Our most valuable hitter during my time in St Louis would have to be Rick Peters, who despite missing time almost every year with injury still was one of our best.
That's all for the Browns.
