At St. Louis:
Michael Wacha put on another brilliant pitching performance (seven innings of two-hit, one-walk, five-strikeout shutout baseball) as he once again outpitched Clayton Kershaw while Carlos Beltran delivered an RBI single during a four-run third inning as the St. Louis Cardinals demolished the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers 9-0 on Friday to win the National League Championship Series four games to two. This marked the Cardinals' 19th National League pennant and they will gun for their second World Series title in three years as they open the Fall Classic this coming Wednesday at Boston or Detroit (the Red Sox have a chance to finish off the Tigers at home on Saturday in game six of the American League Championship Series). The Cardinals have won two of their three previous World Series each against Boston and Detroit.
