St. Louis Cardinals WIN Game 7 - World Series 6-2!

This just in! -The Cardinals just won Game 7 of the World Series, coming back from 3-2 down in the series - and being a strike away from losing twice in Game 6 - to win their 11th title with another key hit by hometown star David Freese and six gutty innings from Chris Carpenter.

A day after an epic Game 6 that saw them twice within one strike of elimination, the Cardinals captured their 11th World Series crown. After a whole fall on the edge, Tony La Russa's team didn't dare mess with Texas, or any more drama.

Freese's two-run double tied it in the first inning against loser Matt Harrison and Allen Craig hit a go-ahead homer in the third.

Pitching on short rest, Carpenter improved to 2-0 in the Series and 4-0 in the postseason. La Russa won his third Series title.

UPDATE- Hometown hero..David Freese...is awarded MVP! Congrats to him!
