How many rings have the Cardinals won?
Eleven World Series triumphs The Cardinals are one of the country's oldest and most successful professional baseball teams, having won 11 World Series titles, more than any other NL team and second only to the New York Yankees in MLB. Their 11 World Series victories are also a record for the most by any team in a single series. The St. Louis Cardinals have winning traditions that date back to 1876 when they first played organized ball. They are one of the oldest major league teams in existence. The Cardinals have been playing at their current home stadium, Busch Stadium, since 2006. It used to be known as Olympic Stadium until it was renamed in honor of Bud Selig who had just been elected commissioner of baseball. The team has won almost half of their games each year since 1945, including nine in a row from 1955 to 1964. They have also produced several all-time great players such as Lou Brock, Ozzie Smith, Matt Holliday, and Carlton Fisk. Current players include Yadier Molina, Daniel Descalso, and Stephen Piscotty. The Cardinals have had 12 different players win the MVP award, with Ted Williams winning five times. Williams is also the only player to win the award three consecutive years. He did so from 1939 to 1941.
