During the offseason, the Cardinals traded Rogers Hornsby on December 20, 1926, to the Giants for Frankie Frisch and Jimmy Ring. Hornsby's offensive numbers rebounded in 1927, as he hit .361 and led the league in runs scored (133), walks (86), and an on-base percentage (.448).

Offseason

*December 20, 1926: Rogers Hornsby was traded by the St. Louis Cardinals to the New York Giants for Frankie Frisch and Jimmy Ring. [http://www.baseball-reference.com/h/hornsro01.shtml]

The deal was held up because Hornsby, as part of his contract as the manager of the Cardinals (he was a player-manager at the time), owned several shares of stock in the Cardinals. Cardinals owner Sam Breadon offered Hornsby a sum for the stock considerably lower than what Hornsby demanded for it, and neither would budge. Eventually, the other owners of the National League made up the difference, and the trade went through.
