Crabby Crabtree's 1941 Cardinals Comeback Hero
Dick Farrington extols Estel Crabtree of the St. Louis Cardinals as a courageous veteran who revived his career after seven years in the minors. The 37 year old outfielder grew from pinch hitting to a regular in August and September, hitting .341 in 71 games, with crucial home runs and strong defense.
