World Series Game 5 - October 27, 2006

Here are some photos from Game 5 of the World Series. I was blessed to have the opportunity to get a ticket to Game 4 of the World Series and since that game on October 25th was rained out, it was rescheduled as Game 5 where the St. Louis Cardinals became the 2006 World Series Champions!
