The St. Louis Cardinals,a professional baseball franchise based in St. Louis,Missouri,compete in the National League (NL) of Major League Baseball (MLB). In 1953,the Anheuser-Busch (AB) brewery bought the Cardinals,and August "Gussie" Busch became team president. Busch's influence is still seen today as three of the Cardinals' home stadia are or were named some form of Busch Stadium. Three World Series titles in the 1960s and 1980s,contrasted with missing the playoffs for the entirety of the 1950s and 1970s checkered the team's success distinctly by decades. However,the team still remained generally competitive in each of those decades - they did not see a last place finish until 1990,which had been the first since 1918. With Busch's tenure as owner,the Cardinals also won six NL pennants.
