A Glorious Evening of Baseball

Fox News published an article about the St. Louis Cardinals today.  The St. Louis Cardinals won game six of the World Series last night against the Texas Rangers.  Both teams are now tied with 3 wins each and will play again tonight in St. Louis for their final game.  The winner of tonight's game will be World Series Camps.  The Cardinals took the Rangers to extra innings and finally ended the game with a walk-off home run from David Freese.  The Cardinals rallied twice to take the game into extra innings.  The final game will take place this evening to see who is crowned the 2011 World Series Champions.

I loved this article.  I really loved this article because the St. Louis Cardinals won.  The Cardinals continue to amaze their fans as the press on to game seven of the World Series.

This article made me very happy.  As I was watching the game last night, I have to admit that I was trying to prepare myself for defeat.  The Cardinals had an opportunity to score several times, but they were not able to advance the runners to the home plate.  As the game was coming closer to the 9th inning, I began to reconcile in my mind that they might not be able to pull this one off.  However, to my amazing surprise, they did it!  They took the game into extra innings.  Then, the most wonderful thing happened.  I just told my family as David Freese came up to bat, in a joking manner, that I thought it would be okay with me if he would hit a home run (not thinking that he would actually do it).  Then it happened; David Freese hit a home run!!!  I loved watching as David ran the bases and then made his way to home plate.  The whole team was gathered around home plate and celebrated with David as he finished his run.  I am so happy that they were able to win.  Tonight I will be watching the game with my family, hoping that the Cardinals can pull off one more win.

So, did you watch the game last night?  Who are you cheering for in the final game of this World Series?  Who do you think will win?  Let's hope that the St. Louis Cardinals can win one more game to seal their amazing comeback season!
