During star-pitcher Bob Gibson's most brilliant season, the turbulent summer of 1968, he started thirty-four games and pitched every inning in twenty-eight of them. After their record-breaking season, Gibson and his teammates were stunned to lose the 1968 World Series to the Detroit Tigers. For the next six years, as Bob Gibson struggled to maintain his pitching excellence, changes in American culture ultimately changed the St. Louis Cardinals and the business and pastime of baseball itself.
