First, I'd like to congratulate the Yankees on a fine season. This championship game was a thriller. The Cardinals jumped out to a 4-0 lead, but the Yankees rebounded with 5 runs in the bottom of the 4th to take the lead, 5-4. The Cardinals responded by crossing 4 runs in the top of the 5th, & despite a late surge by the Yankees, the Cardinals prevailed & took home the NC 2009 Babe Ruth Championship. The Cardinals united as a team, & there were numerous highlights, but the one most fitting was at the end of the game, as they circled around each other to hoist the Championship trophy together. Congratulations Cardinals on a fantastic season. I, along with Coaches, Becker, Dott, Roberts, Koshgarian, & Maloney are very proud of each of you. Well done fella's!!! Pitching: Kodi Riddell picked up where he left off the night before & threw a brilliant 2 innings. Dean Maloney followed & threw strike after strike, & although he was used only once during the regular season, he looked like a veteran out there. Casey "the closer" Ogden was "beastly" out there in the final 3 innings, & sealed the "W". Our catching duo of Tyler Becker & Dean Maloney were fantastic as always. Player of the game goes to: the entire Cardinals team!!!
