Cardinal Rule, St. Louis heads to the World Series

Just a month ago, it seemed Pujols would be watching the Fall Classic from his couch. Now, the future hall-of-famer is headed to the World Series to take on the Texas Rangers. Game 6 of the NLCS always seemed out of reach as Marcum let up 4 runs in the 1st inning. The damage would not stop with him at the mound as Brewers' bullpen was peppered with homers, including one from Pujols. Motte and Molina finally celebrated after 9 innings of a game which had an inevitable outcome. This years fall classic will feature the Texas Rangers again and another NL Cinderella. Whatever the outcome, this has certainly been an odd year of baseball.
