St. Louis Cardinals Win Eastern Championship Series
With a 11-1 win over the Washington Senators tonight at Sportsman's Park IV (NL), the St. Louis Cardinals wrapped up their 5th title in team history.

St. Louis left little doubt who was the better club. "Team" was the word of the day as the Cardinals celebrated the culmination of their banner year in the victors clubhouse following the game.

"Hitting, pitching, fielding; those are all things you need to win, but most importantly you need a team, a team that works together toward the same collective goal," said St. Louis manager . "Our players felt that way all year and they played that way. When one guy had an off day, 24 others stepped up their game and filled the void."

A jovial mood filled the air as St. Louis celebrated into the night. The city's mayor said parade plans were underway and a "huge celebration" in the works.

"We're going to celebrate our team, our championship St. Louis Cardinals," he said.

The champions completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the National League and a 95-59 record.
