Q: This Hall of Fame outfielder won a World Series as a player and two more as a manager, all with the St. Louis Cardinals.  He had a son (Junior) and a cousin with the same name, both of whom played professional baseball.  During WWII his son trained pilots to fly the B-29 Superfortress, the bomber that would drop the atomic bombs.  During a flight from New York to Florida in 1945, he perished when his plane crashed into Flushing Bay.  Who was the HoF father?
