The St. Louis Cardinals finished the season strong, winning their last five games, including a three game sweep over the Pirates on Sunday. The Cardinals got 5 hits from Skip Schumaker. The Cardinals used 10 pitchers in the win, and finished the season at 78-84, third place in the Central, 7 games back of Chicago, and 5 games back of Milwaukee.
Our guy, Albert Pujols unfortunately went 0-5, with 2 strikeouts. Albert had no struck out the entire month of September, and he did twice today. Albert did not reach 100 runs, finishing with 99, nor 100 walks, also finishing with 99.
Great season Albert! Get healthy and let’s go in 2008!
