CARDINALS - WORLD SERIES WINNER IN 5 GAMES!
The Cardinals didn't make the playoffs until the last day of the regular season, but on Friday they celebrated their 10th World Series title.Jeff Weaver threw eight stellar innings and St. Louis took advantage of two more miscues from the Tigers, as the Cardinals beat Detroit, 4-2, in Game 5 of the Fall Classic at Busch Stadium.
The Cardinals captured their first championship since beating Milwaukee in 1982, and they did it with a pitcher who wasn't on their roster to start the season.
Weaver didn't come to the Cardinals until a July 5 trade with the Angels. He lost Game 2 in Detroit Sunday, but came back with an incredible effort on Friday, allowing four hits and two runs while striking out nine and walking one batter.

The Tigers ran out of steam...Cardinals didn't....the main thing is the Yankees was out early.
