Why the Cardinals won: The little big man, David Eckstein, hit .364 and was the Series MVP.
Why the Tigers lost: The Tigers never got their offense going. Detroit hit .199 in the Series and struck out 37 times against eight walks.
Memorable moment: Kenny Rogers' pine-tar-on-the-hat controversy in Game 2.
Key stat: .200. Albert Pujols' batting average in the Series. No matter, St. Louis still won.
