Cardinals on MLB Network

For those of you that have access to the MLB Network on your local cable system... Tonight at 9:00PM* Cathedrals of the Game will feature the Cards' roost, Busch Stadium. The show will re-air at 1:00AM and 4:00AM for you night owls.

I also see that it will air tomorrow (Jan 6) at noon and 5:00PM.

Also, tomorrow at 10:30PM, MLB-N will show highlights of the 1946 World Series between the Cards and Red Sox... hopefully with a Cardinals slant to it. They've been showing highlights from the 2004 World Series for the past couple of days and, as you could expect, the production is heavily slanted towards the Red Sox.

*All times eastern


On the topic of Busch Stadium... I highly recommend picking up a copy of A Day in the Life of Busch Stadium, the 2008 yearbook from Cardinals Publications. I received it as a Christmas gift. The people at Cardinals Pub always do a great job with Gameday magazine and the yearly calendars complete with game schedule, and this book is no different. A Day in the Life features a lot of great behind-the-scenes photos of the people and activities that really make Busch Stadium run. The book chronicles the gameday activities occurring at the stadium beginning at 5AM and ended well after fans have left.
