Part 1/9:
Marking the 56th Anniversary of a Storied Interview in St. Louis Sports History
This month commemorates the 56th anniversary of one of the most legendary interviews in the annals of St. Louis sports. It was an encounter that not only captured the essence of a beloved Cardinals broadcaster but also highlighted the turbulent moments behind the scenes of Major League Baseball’s storied franchises. The interview was conducted by Ron Jacober, then a relatively new sports reporter for Channel 5, with the legendary Harry Carey, the iconic voice of the St. Louis Cardinals since 1945.
