Cardinals announce 2020 broadcast schedule; FSMW to air 55 games

ST. LOUIS – The St. Louis Cardinals announced their 2020 regular-season broadcast schedule Thursday, and 55 of the 60 games will air on FOX Sports Midwest.

FOX Sports Midwest, in its 27th season with the team and 10th as the exclusive local TV home of the Cardinals, will also televise the Cardinals-Royals exhibition game at Busch Stadium on July 22.

Each FOX Sports Midwest telecast will be streamed live on the FOX Sports GO app and at FOXSportsGO.com. The network will continue to produce the Cardinals Live pregame and postgame shows for every regular-season telecast, including expanded pregame coverage on Opening Night, July 24.

Dan McLaughlin, Jim Edmonds, Ricky Horton and Brad Thompson will call home games from the broadcast booth at Busch Stadium, but will remain in St. Louis to call road games. Jim Hayes, Scott Warmann and Erica Weston will serve as reporters and hosts for Cardinals Live, while Al Hrabosky and Rick Ankiel serve as pregame and postgame analysts. Hall of Famer Tim McCarver has opted not to travel from Florida to broadcast Cardinals games this season. The network will also continue to air Cardinals Insider, the club-produced weekly television show, with new episodes beginning July 19.

Every Cardinals regular-season game will be televised. Five are scheduled to air on FOX.
