That was more important than your typical World Series Game 1 victory.
- The Cardinals' worst starter out-dueled the Tigers' best. Detroit's rotation is now less of an obstacle.
- The Cardinals took away home field advantage.
- Scott Rolen, Jim Edmonds and Albert Pujols all looked strong. If these three get rolling at the same time, that's one deadly line-up.
- La Russa finally figured out how to write "S. Taguchi" on the line-up card.
- St. Louis' bullpen (save Looper) all got another day of rest, catching up with the Tigers' week off.
Although...
- Pujols' lower lip is officially freaking me out. What's going on there? Is that an STD? You best be keeping your pants on, Albert.

1. Yeah, the big 3 look better. I'm really glad to see Rolen hitting. The fielding... not as good.
2. Taguchi needs to play more, dispite his o-fer
3. Duncan needs to play more. Period.
4. Rested bullpens are good.
5. Please do not question Albert's marital fidelity.
6. I said we "needed" to win game 1 and we did. Now things get interesting... Let's just hope I can sneak into a game this week.
