Keeping You Informed: New Faces On FSMW

Posted on April 7, 2011 at 3:23 PM
Filed Under: St. Louis Cardinals
From time to time I get press releases from Fox Sports Midwest and, after a conversation this last weekend, I expect to be getting them from the Cardinals as well.  I'm going to try to do a better job of posting these for you to read as well.  Hopefully you'll find these interesting and informative.

As for this press release, I'm good with Mike Matheny joining the staff, as the little I've seen of him on TV was pretty good.  (Apparently he was on Sunday's pre-game show, but I was a little busy then....)  Don't have any particular problem with adding John Mabry either, though I don't think I've seen him do TV.  As for Jay Randolph, well, at least he won't be doing play by play or filling in regularly.

MIKE MATHENY, JOHN MABRY AND JAY RANDOLPH JOIN

FOX SPORTS MIDWEST'S CARDINALS TV TEAM

 

Former Cardinals Mike Matheny and John Mabry and broadcasting veteran Jay Randolph have joined FOX Sports Midwest's broadcast team for Cardinals baseball. The three join Dan McLaughlin, Al Hrabosky, Rick Horton, Pat Parris, Jim Hayes and Cal Eldred on FOX Sports Midwest's coverage, which expands to 152 regular season games this year.

 

Description: IMG_1348MATHENY TO SERVE AS PREGAME AND POSTGAME ANALYST

 

Matheny, A four-time Gold Glove winner, will be the analyst on some Cardinals Live pregame and postgame shows on FOX Sports Midwest.

 

Matheny's first appearance was on Sunday's pregame show. He is next scheduled to co-host the pregame and postgame shows on Saturday and Sunday (April 9-10) when the Cardinals take on the San Francisco Giants, another of Matheny's former teams.

 

"I'm excited to be part of the FOX Sports team and look forward to being part of the broadcasting world and getting more involved in the game," said Matheny.

 

Matheny played 13 major league seasons (1994-2006) with Milwaukee, Toronto, St. Louis and San Francisco. Considered one of baseball's best defensive catchers, he won three of his four Gold Gloves as a Cardinal.

 

For more on Matheny see this story at FOXSportsMidwest.com.

 

JOHN MABRY WILL PROVIDE PREGAME ANALYSIS

 

Mabry, who had three stints with the Cardinals during his 14 major league seasons, will be the analyst on the Cardinals Live pregame show when Eldred and Matheny aren't available.

 

Mabry played outfield, first base and third base as a Cardinal. He hit .307 in 1995, his first full season. In 1996 he hit .297 with a career-best 74 RBIs as a key part of the Cardinals division championship team.

 

JAY RANDOLPH TO CONTRIBUTE TO CARDS COVERAGE

 

FOX Sports Midwest has also added broadcasting veteran Randolph, who will contribute to the network's Cardinals coverage with features on Cardinals personalities, interviews and more. He also provided the voice over for a special pregame segment on opening day.

Randolph has been in broadcasting for more than 50 years. He served in a play-by-play role on Cardinals telecasts for 21 seasons over two stints, including 2007-10 on KSDK-TV.
