Molina, Beltran, Holliday, Freese & Wainwright At Cards LA Hotel (Videos)

After taking the first two games of the 2013 NLCS, the St. Louis Cardinals have made their way to Los Angeles for Games 3, 4 and 5 (if necessary) with the NL West champion Dodgers. During the majority of trips to the nation's second largest city, St. Louis calls The Langham Huntington Pasadena hotel home. This week, the iconic National League Central franchise has made the decision to hang their helmets at the JW Marriott Los Angeles L.A. Live. Located in downtown LA (directly across the street from Staples Center), this luxury property sits four miles southwest of Dodger Stadium.

Below are behind the scenes, iFolloSports.com original videos of the Cards' top players boarding the team's charter bus, a little more than four hours prior to the first pitch of Game 3. The video clips are posted in the order in which the players exited the hotel.
