Busch Stadium paid moving tribute to Oscar Taveras, the 22-year-old Cardinals right fielder whose death in a car accident, along with his girlfriend Edelia Arvelo, shook the baseball world this weekend. Taveras' body was laid to rest Tuesday in his native Dominican Republic, with a huge crowd of mourners assembled. The Royals, including pitcher Yordano Ventura, paid homage to Taveras as well with special messages during Game 6 of the World Series.
