Baseball Hall of Famer Whitey Herzog, who won a World Series as manager with the St. Louis Cardinals in 1982, has died, the team announced Tuesday. He was 92.

Herzog played eight years in the majors before heading into the dugout. He was a manager for the Texas Rangers and California Angels part of the 1973 and 1974 seasons respectively before finding some success with the Kansas City Royals and later the Cardinals.

"The entire Cardinals family is heartbroken to learn of the passing of Hall of Famer and World Series champion manager Whitey Herzog at the age of 92," the Cardinals said in a statement posted to X.

With the Cardinals, he won three pennants and the World Series. His managerial style during his time in St. Louis was known as "Whiteyball." He relied on defense and bullpen-by-committee relief pitching.

"They (the media) seemed to think there was something wrong with the way we played baseball, with speed and defense and line-drive hitters," Herzog wrote in his memoir "White Rat: A Life in Baseball" in 1987. "They called it 'Whiteyball' and said it couldn't last."
