Fans celebrate St. Louis Cardinals World Series victory – MLB News
The city of St. Louis wore a festive look on Sunday as thousands converged on the streets to celebrate the magnificent victory of their team. Vanquishing the Texas Rangers, the St. Louis Cardinals won the World Series title for the 11th time in
their franchise history on Friday.
They had to spend a restless period of eight months to realise this dream. Sunday saw coaches, players, employees and people of almost all walks of life to get into Busch Stadium to mark the joyous event.
Buoyant and full of joy, the Cardinals’ players, fans and everyone related to the club had the best moments of their life as they got together to celebrate the event that came after the intense hard work put by the players.
David Freese whose feats assisted in the team’s victory in the most difficult and seemingly unimaginable, times called the event amazing. Freese was the one whose Game 6 homer brought the eagerly but almost unanticipated and unexpected victory to the team.
The team initially seemed in hot water when the series saw the Texas Rangers securing a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series. They seemed to have almost prevailed in Game 6 to wrap up the World Series with a 7-5 victory. However, the two-run ninth inning
changed the course.
The parade at Busch Stadium began in the evening and attracted thousands in the area. The team came with remarkable pride and got a welcome they deserved: That of heroes.
Along with Tony La Russa came his wife and he was subsequently followed by the principal owner of the team Bill DeWitt Jr. and all of the players to celebrate the event.
The team was greeted by thousands of fans and well wishers from all over the city. With the fans assembling to felicitate the team, the players and other team management retired to inside the team’s stadium. That was, as expected, the moment to share the
most cheerful of moments with the ones who contributed to the ultimate victory of the St. Louis Cardinals in their glorious victory.
