Carlton Fisk waved his home run fair in a Game 6. Kirby Puckett hit his walk-off home run in a Game 6. Last night, St. Louis Cardinal David Freese, who hit only 10 home runs during the season, saved his team’s season with a two-strike, two-out triple in the bottom of the ninth inning to tie the score and then hit a solo home run in the...

What a game. What an amazing ugly duckling of a game that turned into a swan by the end. To start, the game was fraught with errors - five total between both teams. It looked like the Keystone Kops had taken the field.
It was tied 4-4 going into the seventh inning and then the Rangers opened up a lead, scoring three runs off back-to-back homers and a single. It looked pretty bleak for the Cardinals, down 7-4. But the way the Cardinals have been playing since Aug. 25 means that the game isn't over until it's over.
The Cardinals put up one run in the bottom of the eighth and then a down-to-the-last-strike triple by hometown boy David Freese sent the game to extra innings tied 7-7. A quick two-run homer by Josh Hamilton put the Rangers back up 9-7 in the top of the 10th, but Lance Berkman responded...

Kind-hearted Oprah Winfrey tops the list of the most charitable celebrities. The media mogul is estimated to have donated more than $41 million through her initiative, Oprah Winfrey Foundation, which helps those in need for education access and programs for women and children.
This is not the first time Oprah leads the most generous celebrities list compiled by The Giving Back Fund. In fact, it's her third on the top spot. "There are many generous celebrities, but when you can top a list of celebrity philanthropists three out of four years, as Oprah has, that is saying something," Marc Pollick, president of The Giving Back Fund, said.
Coming at the second place is novelist Nora Roberts. She gave away around $4.45 million to her organization supporting literacy, children's programs and other humanitarian efforts. Meryl Streep and her hubby Donald J. Gummer follow at the third with a total of $4 million in donation...
