Former Cardinals pitcher Broglio dies

Brock, a promising but inconsistent, power-hitting outfielder for the Cubs, went on to hit .348 and stole 33 bases for the Cardinals after they acquired him in 1964, sparking the club to the pennant and then the World Series title.

In the next two seasons, Broglio was 1-6 and then 2-6 for Chicago and never pitched in the majors after 1966. He would finish 7-19 for the Cubs after going 70-55 for the Cardinals.
