One Nation
October 28th, 2006 | by Tony Steidler-Dennison |Bernie Miklasz in today’s St. Louis Post-Dispatch:
Cardinals fans live everywhere, existing as one extended family, and they became one nation under a groove again on Friday night, when the power of this Red October pulled their heartbeats together in an electric moment. At 10:22 on the evening of Oct. 27, 2006, rookie Cardinals closer Adam Wainwright struck out the Tigers’ Brandon Inge on a heinous breaking ball, sealing World Series title No. 10 with a 4-2 victory in Game 5.
This Cardinal fan and former St. Louisan felt that family last night in a living room in Iowa. Today, I closed The Roadhouse with the last World Series-winning call of another member of that family, the late Jack Buck. He would have loved this team’s determination as much as I did.
