Stengel, (Charles Dillon) Casey

(1891–1975) baseball player/manager; born in Kansas City, Mo. One of baseball's authentic "characters" and a manager of eccentric genius, Stengel abandoned dental school and began his distinguished six-decade career in Kankakee, Ill., in 1910. From 1912–25 he played outfield in the major leagues (1925–31 in the minors) compiling career averages of .964 for fielding and .284 for batting. Coaching and managing after 1932, as manager of the Yankees (1948–60) he won ten pennants and seven World Series championships; in the five seasons from 1949 to 1953, he won five consecutive pennants and Series. He managed the New York Mets from 1962–65 and was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1966. Known for his encyclopedic knowledge of players and for making strategic choices "against" the averages, his famous quotable malapropisms and "Stengelese" attained legendary proportions in the 1958 Senate subcommittee hearings examining baseball's trust-exempt status.
