A Cardinal coach under Johnny Keane, Schoendienst succeeded him in 1965, beginning the longest managerial tenure in club history. Under his direction, St. Louis won pennants in 1967 and 1968 and defeated the Red Sox in the 1967 World Series. On the inside left front tail of the jersey is the "Rawlings" label and size "50" and adjacent is the flag tag reading "Set 1 1993." Across the front of the jersey is the name "Cardinals" in script-style letters made of red on blue embroidered stitch. Going through the letter "C" is a gold embroidered bat with a red embroidered Cardinal perched on each end. On the back of the jersey is a white nameplate with the name "Schoendienst." Below this is the player number "2." Both the name and the number are made of red on blue tackle twill. There is an autograph on the right front of the shirt. The jersey shows wear and appears to have no alterations of any kind.
