As we get closer to the beginning of the 2021 pre-season for the St. Louis Cardinals, the possibility of two Cardinals greats seeing their last season could take place.
Broadcaster and former Cardinal great, Mike Shannon, could see the end of his radio career with the Cards. If this is Shannon s last year it will be his 50th. Shannon began his career in the booth back in 1972.
The workload for Shannon has been pared down the last few years. Shannon even had his broadcast schedule changed to home games only in 2016.
Shannon has been in the Cardinals’ organization since signing as a player in 1958, then reaching the big leagues as an outfielder in 1962.

The section of Abbott in front of the stadium closes to north and southbound traffic at 5:15 p.m.
