Product DescriptionThey believed. They wanted it. They overcame a 10.5-game deficit in late August and claimed a playoff berth on the final day of the regular season. They then conquered the Philadelphia Phillies, and prevailed against the Milwaukee Brewers.Facing off next against the Texas Rangers the St. Louis Cardinals fell behind 3-2 in the Fall Classic despite the record-setting performance of Albert Pujols. But back at Busch Stadium, a Game 6 for the ages unfolded as the Redbirds who were twice down to their last strike, rallied in both the ninth and 10th innings, when hometown hero David Freese crushed an all-time walk-off home run in the 11th inning to force a Game 7. In the deciding game, ace Chris Carpenter’s steely performance and a two-run double from World Series MVP Freese delivered the franchise’s 11th World Series Championship.This official Blu-Ray from Major League Baseball Productions provides comprehensive highlights, exclusive access and interviews, plus breath-

52 of 58 people found the following review helpful A Brilliant Encapsulation of the Most Incredible Season in Cardinal History, November 22, 2011 By  Parker J. Bena "Civil War Buff" (Jefferson City, MO) - See all my reviews    This review is from: STL Cardinals 2011 Official World Series Championship Film (DVD) I just got a copy of the 2011 Official World Series Film and it is awsome! Hearing the reactions from the guys to the various pivotal moments of the Fall Classic made them all the more special. I love the way all the key points of the season were highlighted - the loss of Wainwright, the early woes of the bullpen, the Pujols injury, the Rasmus Trade, the ascent to the Wild Card - everything. There is also a bonus disc featuring Game Five of the NLDS against the Phillies - possibly the gutsiest Chris Carpenter performance ever - in its entirety. I also liked the fact that most of the game audio was taken from Mike Shannon and John Rooney on KMOX. Much better than hearing those sniveling Yankee and Red Sox appologists on FOX. I loved how each game was encapsulated, especially the dramatic fashion in which the stage was set for Games Six and Seven. One thing I had a problem with was the narration. While I do think that Jon Hamm did a good job, I would much rather that Billy Bob Thornton (who narrated the 2006 Official World Series Film) had been the narrator. I think captions would have been a plus, but, otherwise, in terms of content, it blows the 2006 World Series Film away.

This review is from: STL Cardinals 2011 Official World Series Championship Film (DVD) This is a 2 DVD set where the first disk, in lightning speed, goes over brief parts of the St. Louis Cardinals regular season and playoffs, and then each game of the World Series. The second disk is worth the price alone, containing game 5 of the NLDS, considered to be one of the most decisive 1-0 games in baseball history. The length of the first disc is about an hour. The editing is poor, jumping around in time, sometimes in flashes, making it confusing to watch. If you don't pay attention, you could lose your place. And be ready with the pause button, because if any text appears on the screen (a record being broken for example), you won't have time to read it. I got a much better feel for what it was trying to do after going thru it a second time. Bonus features included the following: This Week in Baseball: Lance Berkman Prime 9: Tony LaRussa NL Wild Card Clinch (Short snip of locker room celebration, no interviews) Game 5 NLDS: Last out Game 6 NLCS: Last out Game 3 World Series: Pujols' 3 home runs Game 6 World Series: Freese's triple to tie Game 6 World Series: Berkman's single to tie Game 6 World Series: Berkman/Freese press conference Game 6 World Series: Freese's Walk off home run. Game 7 World Series: Freese's double to tie Game 7 World Series: Last out. Sound options are: 2.0 Stereo Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround sound (not Dolby) There is, I'm afraid, no closed captioning option. All of the bonus features worth watching have more time devoted to them while viewing the regular disk footage, except the game 6 walk off home run by Freese which is broadcast four times, using both sets of the USA announcers, a British announcer and a Spanish announcer in Spanish. Some others are just a few seconds long. This is not really a "World Series Film". Disk one is a film for St. Louis Cardinal fans and fans of baseball who are St. Louis Cardinal fans. I would have shown more about both teams rather than just the St. Louis Cardinals, especially about how each team was structured in offense, defense and pitching. In the editing, I would have finished one thing before I showed the next. But as a bonus feature, I would have spent some appropriate time showing how the Cardinals, a team with a typical troubled season poised for a meltdown, won 33 of their last 50 regular and post season games to become world champions. A remarkable comeback that happens in baseball, but only rarely. It shows that anything can happen in baseball which is the beauty of the sport. In baseball, appearances often times cannot predict an outcome. In the end, the seven game contest was between two virtually evenly matched teams, each in their own way. An upstart pesky team who came up against a virtual bulldog of a team, and won, as one announcer put it, "...they just...won't...go...away. Even more notable is a second story of a team who accomplished all this with one pitcher, and a bunch of other guys whom thru management and their own efforts would become pitchers. But the gem of the two disks is the second one. A pitching duel, with selectable half innings, pitting best friends and former teammates Chris Carpenter and Roy Halladay against each other showing the complete fifth game of the NLDS. For those who would like to have a classic pitching duel of their own in their living room with two Cy Young Award pitchers at the helm, buy this set and throw away the first disk.

(Scottsdale, AZ) - See all my reviews This review is from: STL Cardinals 2011 Official World Series Championship Film (DVD) For Cardinals fans still floating on cloud nine after St Louis polished off the Texas Rangers in Game Seven of the 2011 World Series, this marvelously crafted film recounting the most improbable championship season in franchise history should keep the euphoria at a fever pitch through the long off-season, and beyond. Certainly, the historical significance of what the Cardinals accomplished in 2011 is astounding - from the wild finish to the regular season which got them the Wild Card berth in Game 162 - to the shocking five game triumph over the Phillies in the NLDS (Carpenter's Game Five masterpiece is included as a bonus) - to the incredible offensive display in the six game whipping of the Brewers in the NLCS - and finally, to the thrilling showdown against Texas which culminated in the Cardinals' eleventh World Series championship, overall. This was indeed a magical championship run for the Redbirds; here's a great way to relive the magic, with the St Louis Cardinals 2011 Official World Series Championship Film. It's a definite winner!
