Jay Randolph returnsCourtesy
the St. Louis Post Dispatch
(April 1, 2011) Jay Randolph lost his job as a Cardinals television play-by-play voice when Fox Sports Midwest took over the team's entire local TV package this season, eliminating the approximately 20 games he broadcast on KSDK (Channel 5). He had broadcast the team for 21 seasons, over two stints, and it looked as if his ties to covering the team were done.
But he's coming back to the airwaves, albeit not on play-by-play. FSM has hired him to work occasionally on its pregame programming and among his assignments will be conversations with Redbirds standouts of the past, interviews with Cards manager Tony La Russa, pieces about "Cardinal Nation" and some narration work. "It's a comfortable jacket of familiarity with Jay's voice," FSM executive producer Kevin Landy said. "It's a good fit." Read more at
