There's seriously a book in there somewhere. They were like parallel dimensions of each other or something. OMG, I never knew that about Southworth and Sewell.

The Browns actually owned the park and the Cardinals rented it. That actually helped the Cardinals because the place was a bit of a dump and the Cardinals didn't have to pay for the upkeep. Cardinals manager Billy Southworth and Browns manager Luke Sewell actually rented the same home. Since neither was ever in St. Louis at the same time, it wasn't a problem. I believe Southworth moved to a different home for the World Series. My mother attended Game 5 of the 1944 World Series on her 15th birthday.
