1967 Topps #421 Dal Maxvill


About Dal Maxvill
The series-5 card #421 is the first to picture Maxvill as a regular. With Groat gone he still had to beat out Jerry Buchek, Jimy Williams and Phil Gagliano in camp, and did not hold the shortstop job for good until early June; from there he played 134 games in 1966, hit .244 with 24 RBI and drew 37 walks. That offseason the Khoury League, the youth program he had come up through, voted him its Major Leaguer of the Year.
Charles Dallan Maxvill was born February 18, 1939, in Granite City, Illinois, and graduated from Washington University in St. Louis in 1960 with a degree in electrical engineering, batting .350 as a senior. Cardinals scout Joe Monahan signed him for a $1,000 bonus, and he reached the majors on June 10, 1962. Across fourteen seasons (1962-1975) with St. Louis, Oakland and Pittsburgh he was valued almost entirely for his glove, finishing at .217 with six home runs in 1,423 games. He became the Cardinals' regular shortstop in 1966 and won the National League Gold Glove there in 1968. He played on four World Series winners: the Cardinals in 1964 and 1967 and the Athletics in 1972 and 1974. After retiring he coached third base for the Mets in 1978 and worked on the Cardinals' and Braves' staffs, then served as St. Louis general manager from February 1985 until September 1994, a tenure that took in National League pennants in 1985 and 1987.
