DAVID ORTIZ walked off as the World Series MVP on Wednesday night as he powered the Boston Red Sox over St. Louis Cardinals.
Ortiz hoisted reliever Koji Uehara over his shoulder after the final out of a 6-1 win, then Big Papi raised the gleaming gold trophy in his crowning achievement.
“I know I’m one of the forces for this ballgame and I like to take things personal,’” he said. “And that’s been my whole career, a challenge.”
Ortiz hit 11 for 16 (.688) with two home runs and six RBIs against the Cardinals, and just missed a grand slam when Carlos Beltran robbed him by reaching over the short bullpen wall.
Now a three-time champion, Ortiz is the last link to the Red Sox team that swept the Cardinals in 2004 and ended an 86-year title drought. Noli Cruz
