Major League Baseball's World Series of 2006 matched the American League's Detroit Tigers against the National League's St. Louis Cardinals.
If you were a Tigers fan, you may have been [happiliy] stunned with disbelief to see your team even make the playoffs; after all, only three years earlier, Detroit had recorded an excruciating 43 wins and 119 losses.
If you were rooting for the Cardinals, you just knew you were due for a “Red October,” having been overrun by the Boston Red Sox in 2004, and just squeezed out of your shot at the Series by the Houston Astros in 2005.
This despite the fact that, in 2006, the Cardinals’ streaky regular season had included a mere 83 wins, the lowest win total of any team to go all the way in the World Series.
The Tigers had some powerful batters like Sean Casey, who had a Series average of .529, but other hot bats went cold, and Placido Polanco, hero of the ASCS, was hitless in 17 tries.
Tiger pitchers posted a collective 3.00 ERA with their excellent throws to the plate; on the other hand, they set a record for errors, with a costly one in every game. So, the St. Louis Cardinals, considered a 12-to-1 shot by oddsmakers, ended up with the winning it all in front of ecstatic fans in the brand new Busch Stadium.
In Game 5, following eight innings of solid pitching by Jeff Weaver, rookie closer Adam Wainwright struck out Brandon Inge for a save – and a World Series ring. Shortstop David Eckstein batted his way to the Most Valuable Player trophy.
Whenever the entire season comes down to two competitors hungry for victory, fans can expect dramatic battles in every game. So come October of 2007 you'll want get your tickets for the thrill of being right in the park and witnessing the piece of history that is the World Series!
