The St. Louis Cardinals and the Houston Astros were deadlocked at 2 games a piece going into game 5. With the series tied at 2- the scene was Minute Maid Park in Houston. For 5 2/3 innings- Brandon Backe no-hit the best lineup in the National League. Over eight innings- he one-hit them. But that was just one remarkable story line in a remarkable October baseball game. With the score 0-0 in the 9th inning- MVP candidate Lance Berkman was intentionally walked to get to veteran 2B Jeff Kent. On the first pitch from All Star closer Jason Isringhausen- Jeff Kent unloaded and belted a shot off the railroad track at Minute Maid Park. It was the 1st time in Major League postseason history that a 0-0 game was decided by a game winning home run in extra innings. Jeff Kent hand signed this memorable 8x10 photograph. A Steiner Sports Certificate of Authenticity is included.
