Sports Open Line is shortened tonight due to KMOX’s broadcast of the St. Louis University Women’s Basketball game vs Rhode Island. In tonight’s show, Matt Pauley shares the news of Matt Holliday resigning as Cardinals bench coach, and why replacement Joe McEwing is a worthy substitute. Michael Hall, Executive Director at Cardinals Care, then joins the show to preview Cardinals Winter Warm-Up happening at Ballpark Village this weekend. Matt caps off the hour by discussing the horrendous officiating in last night’s SLU men’s basketball game that saw head coach Travis Ford ejected after two unnecessary technical fouls.
