Excerpt: Vaughan Pallmore "Bing" Devine (March 1, 1916 January 27, 2007) was an American front office executive in Major League Baseball. In the prime of his career, as a general manager, the executive who is responsible for all baseball operations, Devine was a major architect of four National League champions and three World Series champions in the six years between 1964 and 1969.

Many of the players Devine acquired led the Cardinals to the 1967 world title and the 1968 NL championship, the latter occurring on Devine's watch during his second tour (1968-78) as St. Louis general manager. In between those terms, from 1965-67, Devine was assistant to the president, and then president (and de facto general manager), of the New York Mets, where he helped put together the organization that would turn the franchise from baseball's laughingstocks to 1969 world champions as the "Miracle Mets."
