I'd go with the Gashouse Gang...the 1934 Cardinals. You'd be hard pressed to find a more colorful group of ballplayers...Ripper, Pepper, Flash, Daffy, Dizzy, Ducky, Spud, Wild Bill, Tex, Dazzy, Gabby, Leo, etc....assembled by, of all people, general manager Branch Rickey while also building the best farm system in the majors. The dirty uniforms, the pre-game pepper drills, the Mudcat Band...in almost every way, these guys played like they had nothing to lose. They won 21 of 28 games in September to win the pennant on the last day of the season, then won the World Series in the seventh game. Their faces reflected how tough life was during the depths of the Depression...guys in their twenties looked like guys in their fifties. What a team...
