The 2006 Major League Baseball season was a landmark year for the sport. The St. Louis Cardinals clinched the World Series title by defeating the Detroit Tigers in five games. Game 4 was particularly memorable, featuring a dramatic walk-off home run by David Eckstein in the bottom of the ninth inning. This victory marked the Cardinals' 10th World Series championship, tying them with the Boston Red Sox for the third-most titles in MLB history. Rookie standout Justin Verlander of the Tigers earned the American League Rookie of the Year Award, while Ryan Howard of the Philadelphia Phillies was named the National League Rookie of the Year. Additionally, the season saw Roger Clemens make history as the first player in MLB to achieve both 3,000 strikeouts and 300 career wins.
