The Cards were down to their last out. Eckstein singled to left. Edmonds walked after taking a very close two-strike pitch. Albert Pujols then hit a 3 run homer and sent the series to St Louis.
Houston eventually won their first NL pennant in St. Louis but a lot of Astros' fans were heartbroken after that swing!
