The St. Louis Cardinals legend and two-time World Series champion died on Sept. 6 at age 81.
Brock was known as "baseball’s most dangerous player for more than a decade" during his tenure with the Cardinals during the 1960s and '70s, according to the National Baseball Hall of Fame. He helped the Cardinals win World Series titles in 1964 and 1967, and enjoyed a storied career in the MLB that lasted until his retirement in 1979.
"Lou was among the game's most exciting players, becoming the 14th player in history to reach 3,000 hits and holding Baseball's all-time record for stolen bases in a season and career for many years," MLB commissioner Robert Manfred Jr. said in a statement. "He was known for his dominant performances in his three career World Series. Lou was an outstanding representative of our National Pastime and he will be deeply missed."
A cause of death for Brock has not yet been publicly announced.
