Historical Fact 1:
No Team has ever won 8 Straight games in the post season.
Historical Fact 2:
Out of approx. 400 to 500 pitches from Cards Pitchers, the Boston Red Sox had only missed no more than 50, meaning they made contact with at least 300+ Pitches. That says that someones bullpen is pretty suspect.
Historical Fact 3:
Like I said going into the WS, The Cardinals had a weak Bullpen. I am sorry but Suppan, Morris, Marqius, Haren, Irsinghausen, King and company are not that fantastic. They could not shut down the core of Boston's Line up, Ortiz, Damon, Ramierz, Bellhorn, Caberra and any else on the squad for that matter.
Secondly, the Boston Pitching Staff really showed it is value. D-Lowe pitched a shutout last night. As Keith Foulke picked up another brilliant Save. Pedro and Curt applied more hurt, to the number one ranked offense in Baseball (Pujola,Edmonds,Walker and dem).
The cardinals were just out played in every aspect of the game of baseball. I love Tony Larussa but Tony you got to get you a better bullpen before you come back to the WS.
All in All St. Louis was no match for a red hot Sox team that was out for blood. The Sox played aggresive baseball from Game 4 of ALCS until now.
So all you Boston Fans, congradulations, your Red Sox are the 2004 World Series Champions.
