Hours before first-pitch in St. Louis, the Cardinals announced they have come to an agreement for local TV broadcasts with Spectrum (Charter) cable. The cable giant will carry Cards games on Channel 233 in St. Louis, Columbia, Jefferson City, Springfield, Hannibal and Cape Girardeau in Missouri as well as Paducah, Kentucky, and Quincy, Illinois.
