Baseball World Series champions |

Baseball is more than a sport to the locals, it is a near-sacred institution. And fans have plenty of reason to be proud of the Cards, who have won nine World Series titles and 15 National League championships. Before anyone had heard of Mark McGwire and his home run records, Stan Musial, Tim McCarver and Ozzie Smith became legends while wearing the red-and-white Cardinal uniform. Ticket prices for home games at Busch Stadium start as low as USD10, so why not head out to the stadium and catch an important part of the city's history in action? Review © 2007, Wcities |
