Stallings, known to baseball fans as the "Miracle Man," managed one of the most renowned teams in the game's history, the 1914 "Miracle" Boston Braves. Trailing the first-place New York Giants by eleven and a half games on July 15, the Braves mounted an unprecedented rally, winning sixty-one of their final eighty-one games to capture the National League pennant by ten and a half games. - Metadata URL:
