Player Biography
Jesse Haines was a fixture on the St. Louis Cardinals pitching staff for 18 seasons – the most in club history – earning the nickname “Pop.” A hard-throwing starter, Haines added an unusually fast knuckleball, later becoming a dominant reliever. He pitched for five pennant winners before retiring at age 44. “When I saw how hard a nice old man like ‘Pop’ took losing a game, I realized why he’d been a consistent winner,” remembered teammate Terry Moore. In Game Three of the 1926 World Series, Haines homered while shutting out the New York Yankees, and won Game Seven for the Cardinals’ first modern championship.
