…and Series 1 Checklist 1 of 3.

In the 2004 NLCS, the Cardinals flawlessly executed big ball, little ball and everything in between to eliminate the Astros in seven.  The series was so excruciatingly close that, after six games, the two teams had identical batting averages, ERAs and runs scored totals.  St. Louis won Game 6  on a home run by Jim Edmonds in the 12th inning, then clinched on the muscle of Albert Pujols’s RBI double and Scott Rolen’s two-run homer in Game 7.  Pujols batted .500 and crunched four longballs to take series MVP honors.
