St Louis Cardinals

With 11 World Series titles to shout about, the St. Louis Cardinals are one of the most successful MLB franchises out there. They play their games at Busch Stadium, in St Louis, and have played in the National League Central Division since 1994. For local fans wanting to watch the St Louis Cardinals live on TV today, or throughout the season, this guide has all the information you need.

What Channel is the Cardinals Game on Tonight?

The majority of St. Louis Cardinals games are broadcast on FanDuel Sports Network Midwest (formerly Bally Sports Midwest). With access to this channel, fans can enjoy not only Cardinals games, but a mix of other local teams as well, such as the St. Louis Blues (NHL), and the St Louis Billikens (college).

Any games not shown on FanDuel Sports Network Midwest will be broadcast on the MLB’s national broadcasting partner channels:

• ESPN: Select nationally broadcast MLB games and Sunday Night Baseball.
• TBS: Tuesday Night MLB games throughout the regular season.
• FOX: 20 Saturday late afternoon or evening games, and four Thursday night games.
• MLB Network: 26 MLB Network Showcase games - blackout restrictions apply for in-market fans.

How to Stream Cardinals Games Online

If you prefer to watch the Cardinals via streaming, FanDuel Sports Network Midwest can be accessed through its app or website, though a TV provider login is required. Without one of those, your best bet is to look into Fubo TV or DirectTV Stream, as these are the only streaming services that include both FanDuel Sports Network Midwest and the national broadcasters in their channel portfolios.

For Cardinals fans who live outside the area, or for those who just want to watch as much MLB action as possible, we would recommend MLB.TV. This gives you access to every single out-of-market MLB game. In-market games do have blackout restrictions, but games are at least uploaded soon after they finish for you to enjoy.

In addition to regional and national broadcasts, some select Cardinals games may be available via the following streaming services, alongside plenty of other sports and entertainment.

• ESPN+: One out-of-market game per day throughout the regular season
• Roku: MLB Sunday Leadoff - Broadcasting early Sunday afternoon games during the regular season.
• Fox Sports App: Stream any games shown on FOX, but requires a TV provider login.
• TBS Sports App: Stream Tuesday night games on TBS.
• Apple TV+: Stream Friday Night Baseball exclusive games.

History of the Cardinals

The Cardinals have been extremely successful throughout their history. They have never lost 100 games in a season since World War I and have been competitive in almost every season since. St. Louis won the first of its 11 World Series titles in 1926. They won again in 1931, 1934, 1942, 1944, 1946, 1964, 1967, 1982, 2006, and 2011.

The Cardinals won four pennants in the old AA and 19 (1926, 1928, 1930, 1931, 1934, 1942, 1943, 1944, 1946, 1967, 1968, 1982, 1985, 1987, 2004, 2006, 2011, and 2013) in the NL. St. Louis has won 14 division titles, 11 NL Central crowns and four as a member of the NL East. St. Louis also made the postseason as an MLB wild card in 2001, 2011, and 2012.

One of the earliest successes in a Cardinals uniform was pitcher Dizzy Dean, who led the St. Louis to the 1934 World Series. That season, Dean won 30 games – the last pitcher to do so – and won the NL MVP.

In the next decade, one of MLB’s greats, Stan Musial, joined the Cardinals. He played 22 seasons, all in St. Louis, and ended his career with 17 MLB records. Despite playing just 22 seasons – he missed two to serve in World War II – Musial was a 24-time All-Star selection. He was part of three Cardinals World Series teams, won the NL batting titles seven times, and was the NL MVP in three seasons.

Bob Gibson was one of the greatest pitchers to ever take the mound. He was the NL MVP in 1968 leading the Cardinals to the World Series. They would lose that season, but Gibson was part of the 1964 and ’67 teams that won World Series titles. In both of those championship series, Gibson was the MVP. He won the NL Cy Young Award twice and ended his career with 251 wins.
