ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - After 50 years, Mike Shannon has called his final regular season game for the St. Louis Cardinals in the radio broadcast booth. Although there's some chance he returns for a possible Game 3 of the NLDS, if St. Louis makes it past the Wild Card game.

Shannon was honored Sunday before his final game, as he was gifted with an honorary plaque from Anheuser-Busch, a golf cart from the Cardinals and the renaming of the KMOX broadcast booth at Busch Stadium as the "Shannon Broadcast Booth."
A gift to Cardinals fans, that will keep on giving, was also announced by John Rooney, Shannon's radio partner of nearly two decades:
"In recognition of Mike's ambassadorship, Budweiser has partnered with the Cardinals to sponsor an initiative that will bring four fans to every home game in 2022, courtesy of Mike Shannon and Budweiser. We've identified four seats in Mike's favorite black color, where four fans can take in a game with a few cold, frosty Buds," Rooney announced.
