MLB - Angels land both Pujols and Wilson

"Brace yourself, Baseball World. The Angels aren't kidding around.

That message was delivered loud and clear on Thursday morning, when they concluded their Winter Meetings by signing the top hitter of the last decade and the top pitcher of this year's free-agent class -- Albert Pujols and C.J. Wilson.

In other words, the Angels and first-year general manager Jerry Dipoto have snatched a no-doubt Hall of Famer still very much in his prime and an ace from the division-rival Rangers, adding them to a team that has missed the playoffs in back-to-back years but still won 86 games in 2011."

MLB - World Series: St. Louis Cardinals are the Champions!

The St. Louis Cardinals are the World Series Champions after they beat the Texas Rangers 6-2 in a Game 7 of the World Series that couldn’t match the impossible drama and excitement of Game 6. The Rangers played hard, but their pitching staff simply ran out of gas, exemplified by the Cardinals’ fifth inning, when they scored two runs without getting the ball out of the infield -- without even getting a hit. Rangers pitchers walked three batters and hit two more, turning a 3-2 game into a 5-2 deficit. Critics will put a lot of blame on manager Ron Washington for the Rangers’ defeat, and deservedly so, but in the end the Rangers simply couldn’t throw enough strikes and couldn’t get the final out they needed in Game 6.
The Cardinals won the first World Series Game 7 since 2002 and brought home the 11th World Series championship in franchise history. They are the fifth Wild Card team, and the first since 2004, to win the title. David Freese was the series' MVP.

MLB - World Series: Game 6

Texas had two chances to clinch its first World Series title, but St. Louis (down to its last out each time) rallied in the ninth and 10th. The drama ended when David Freese, who forced extras with his triple, hit a walk-off shot in the 11th to force a Game 7.

MLB - World Series: Game 5

Mike Napoli delivered the crushing blow in Game 4 and returned to his wrecking-ball ways in Game 5 vs. the Cardinals, hitting a go-ahead two-run double in the eighth to position the Rangers within one win of their first World Series title.

MLB - World Series: Game 4

A night after Texas pitchers gave up 16 St. Louis runs, Derek Holland allowed two hits over 8 1/3 shutout innings to pull the Rangers even in the World Series(2-2). Mike Napoli's three-run homer paced the offense in support of Holland.

MLB - World Series: Game 3

After 2 low scored games, we had a big shutout. The St. Louis Cardinals won the 3rd game of the World Series. The Rangers made some errors that the Cardinals take advantage. Another great factor was Albert Pujols with 3 HR, he can be a big factor for the remain of the series.

MLB - World Series: Game 2

The Texas Rangers made a big comeback win at the 9th inning to tied the Series (1-1). The 1st score of the game came in the 7th inning for the St. Louis after a big hit by Allen Craig against Ogando (2nd straight of the series). However, in the 9th inning, the Rangers made the comeback with 2 scores with Kinsler making a huge contribute with 2 base steals.

MLB - World Series: Game 1

And the winner of the 1st Game of the World Series was The St. Louis Cardinals. In a really tight game, the Cardinals won by 3-2. The Cardinals made the first 2 rbi's of the game, but the Rangers tied the game right before the Cardinals. The game winning rbi came on the bottom of the 6th inning.
