Who was the Cardinal that won The Sporting News Rookie of the Year in 1967?

from St. Louis Cardinals: Beyond the HOF- Saluting Unsung Heroes · host Thomas Nance and Jon Krost

He's the same guy who Tom Seaver beat out for the 1967 MLB Rookie of the Year.  He's the same guy who led the Cardinals in wins that year.  He was a 29-year-old rookie who picked up the mantle when Gibson went down with a broken leg, leading the team with 16 wins, only becoming a regular starter in May.  He's an eighty-six-year-old who delights us with an  interview that covers his adventures from minor league ball to pitching in Fenway as he helped lead the Cardinals to a World Series Championship.
