St. Louis Cardinals Sweep Eastern Championship Series
The St. Louis Cardinals are champions, today and forever. The Cardinals topped the New York Yankees 9-4 at Yankee Stadium I today to claim the Eastern Championship Series crown.

"Nobody can take this away from us, not ever," said series MVP and third baseman Pinky Higgins after his club had sealed the victory. "We worked hard and we accomplished our goal."

The atmosphere was electric as the newly-crowned champs stormed the field at the conclusion of the game. Fans cheered, gloves flew in the air, high fives and hugs were the order of the day.

"From day one of spring training, I could see it in their eyes," said St. Louis manager . "The players had that look of intensity, of hunger, of a desire to accomplish something great, and today they did that. They're champions of the world."

The Cardinals took the series 4-0. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the National League and a 104-50 record.
