It's every kid's baseball fantasy. The ninth inning, two outs, your team trailing, the best pitcher staring down from the mound, and it all comes down to you. Then...boom! A tremendous home run that clears the bases and wins the game. That's what Albert Pujols gave Cardinal Nation last night -- an amazing finish. Now they live to return to Busch Stadium (and give me at least one more baseball-truncated show) on Wednesday. Whew. Now, if only the Rams didn't suck.
