Herb Pennock & the New York Yankees “Murderers’ Row”

Herb Pennock was a member of the immortal New York Yankees “Murderers’ Row,” with Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. But he wasn’t a hitter, he was a pitcher. In World Series play, Pennock amassed a 5–0 career win–loss record with three saves, and was a part of seven World Series championship teams:1913, 1915, 1916, 1923, 1927, 1928, and 1932. Later he served as general manager for the Philadelphia Phillies. Pennock was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1948.
