Featured Cardinals Player
Albert Pujols, First-baseman. He is a phenom when it comes to swinging a bat. How great is it that he can hit 32 home runs, drive in 103 runs, score 99 more times, with 185 hits, have a .327 average, and .429 OBP and it is considered the worst year of his career? Pujols is looking to show that last year's "down year" was simply a fluke.
Featured Cardinals Team
The 1946 St. Louis Cardinals were a team of destiny. MVP, Stan the Man lead the team to the promise land... a WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONSHIP!
