More than 40,000 votes were cast over a six-week period before McGwire and McCarver emerged as the leading vote-getters. McGwire spent the final five years of his career in St. Louis, where he electrified the nation while breaking Roger Maris' single-season home run record in 1998.
McGwire hit 70 homers that season, 65 the following year and ranks sixth in franchise history with 220 as a Cardinal.
