On September 18, 1967, the Cardinals clinched the National League pennant. The next day's game against the Phillies was almost as interesting. Starting for the Cardinals was Dick Hughes, who owned the best winning percentage of all NL pitchers. Dick talks about this game and other highlights of the '67 WS champions, including how he got his nickname "The Sniper." This episode is part two of our interview with Dick Hughes, The Sporting News 1967 Rookie of the Year.
