The Miraculous 2011 World Series St. Louis Cardinals Victory – Benjamin Hochman

The St. Louis Cardinals 2011’s World Series victory stands out as something magical. It was the work of a team that seemingly had no business even playing in October, yet refused to back down until the trophy was theirs. In his new book, 11 in ’11: A Hometown Hero, La Russa’s Last Ride in Red, and a Miracle World Series for the St. Louis Cardinals, St. Louis Post-Dispatch columnist Benjamin Hochman offers on-the-ground perspective on Albert Pujols, in his final year as a Card, team ace Chris Carpenter, Yadier Molina showing his might both behind and at the plate, and the unlikely hero David Freese.
 
Watch Benjamin to hear about his book, hot off the press! Go with him inside the front office to see how this roster was constructed, relive the blistering final stretch of the regular season and experience the palpable energy of Busch Stadium during Game 6, where Hochman watched enthralled as a fan.
