2006 World Series - Tigers vs. Cardinals (The Official Highlights MLB DVD Release)

For St. Louis Cardinals fans, a delightful review of an unexpected playoff run and World Series Championship. For Tiger fans a reminder that all the little things count, including pitchers fielding their position. For all of us, a reminder that under-estimated, smaller payroll teams like Detroit and St. Louis can play great baseball. Generally well produced and lively, this DVD covers key highlights of the 2006 division, NLCS and World Series games and all of its unlikely heros (and goats). Thorton's narration is engaging. Player interviews add context and insight. Great for Cardinal Fans, the DVD could have been a bit more balanced in representing Tiger players and Detroit's laudable resurrection from a mere 70+ wins a season ago. To use a worn cliche`, you knew it was "in the Cards" when rookie Adam Wainwright, making the league minimum, strikes out Card-Killer, and multi-million dollar star Carlos Beltran on three pitches to win the NLCS for the Redbirds. Like Boston in 2004, momentum means a lot, and this fun video has plenty of that. Enjoy.

this was a very entertaining baseball DVD with interviews and regular season video clips.

very good

This is a great DVD. My son loves it almost as much as the 2011 World Series DVD.

Great series

Kids orders DVD as a further day gift he loved it

EVERYONE COUNTED THEM OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS EVEN BEFORE THEY STARTED....THEY PLAYED TOGETHER AS A TEAM...AND WENT IN TO EACH ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS AS A UNDERDOG TEAM...AND PROVED EACH TIME THEY COULD WIN. AND TO ALL THE EAST & WEST COAST PRESS...."DEAL WITH IT..WE WON..LOL" THE SAINT LOUIS CARDINALS ARE THE WORLD CHAMPIONS OF 2006...

This is a must have video for any Cardinals fan! It has commentary from players and coaches and shows behind the scenes clips leading up to the Cardinals World Series win. It also shows clips from past Cardinal World Series victories. This is a video that a fan can watch over and over and still get excited about.
