But a World Series team? That was hard to see in late August when the Cardinals were 11 games behind the Phillies. Not only that, but they trailed the Reds and Giants, too. But beginning on Aug. Two days after losing a game, Bob Gibson came back to throw four innings in relief on the final day of the regular season to clinch the pennant.

Hicks had served as a starter for most of his minor-league career, but because of his blazing fastball to go along with lesser-developed secondary offerings, the Cardinals viewed him as a better fit out of the bullpen upon summoning him to the majors in However, after Hicks missed most of and while recovering from Tommy John surgery and then experienced inflammation in his elbow last spring that prevented him from pitching at the big-league level in , the Cardinals may be rethinking his role.
