The radio broadcast was carried by CBS Radio, with Jack Buck and Hank Stram announcing.

John Francis " Jack " Buck ( August 21, 1924 – June 18, 2002 ) was an American sportscaster, best known for his work announcing Major League Baseball games of the St. Louis Cardinals.

In 1968, after CBS abandoned the practice of assigning dedicated announcing crews to particular NFL teams, Summerall ascended to the network's lead national crew, pairing with Jack Buck and then Ray Scott.

Jack Buck and Carl Erskine were the lead announcing crew for this series, which lasted one season.

As previously mentioned, in 1968, CBS abandoned its practice of using dedicated announcing crews for particular teams and instituted a semi-merit system in its place, with certain crews ( such as Ray Scott and Paul Christman or Jack Buck and Pat Summerall ) being assigned to each week's most prominent games regardless of the participating teams.

Collinsworth left the show in 2002, when he was promoted to Fox's newly formed " A Team " NFL game announcing team alongside Joe Buck and Troy Aikman ( replacing Pat Summerall and John Madden ).

That same day, longtime Cardinals broadcaster Jack Buck died.

Buck started broadcasting Cardinals games for KMOX radio in 1954, teaming with Harry Caray, Milo Hamilton ( 1954 ), and Joe Garagiola ( from 1955 ).

Buck was dropped from the Cardinals booth in 1959 to make room for Buddy Blattner ; the following year, he called Saturday Game of the Week telecasts for ABC.

Buck was re-hired by the Cardinals in 1961 after Blattner departed ; Garagiola left the following year, leaving Caray and Buck as the team's broadcast voices through 1969.

After Caray was fired by the Cardinals following the 1969 season, Buck ascended to the team's lead play-by-play role.

On Cardinals broadcasts, Buck routinely punctuated St. Louis victories with the expression, " That's a winner!

In 1975, Buck temporarily left his Cardinals baseball duties in order to host the NBC pregame show, GrandStand, alongside Bryant Gumbel.

On August 16, 1976, Buck called the first-ever NFL game played outside of the United States, a preseason exhibition between the St. Louis Cardinals and San Diego Chargers held at Korakuen Stadium in Tokyo, Japan.

( Buck also worked NBC's backup Game of the Week during the 1976 baseball season before returning to the Cardinals full-time in 1977.

Buck also served as a part-time radio broadcaster for the football Cardinals in 1980 and 1981 ( filling in when regular announcer Dan Kelly was busy doing hockey ), and returned to calling Sunday NFL games for CBS television from 1982 to 1987.

While Verne Lundquist replaced Summerall on games with lead analyst John Madden, Buck ( who was at the time the network's lead Major League Baseball announcer ) filled in for Lundquist, teaming with Dan Fouts to call two games ( both of which coincidentally featured the Cardinals, who had moved from St. Louis to Arizona by that time ).

Over the course of the 1990s, Buck decided to reduce his schedule to calling only Cardinals home games ( or 81 games a year unless there was a " special occurrence ").

" On a road trip to Wrigley Field on June 6, 2001, Buck sang the seventh-inning stretch tune, " Take Me Out to the Ballgame " substituting " the Cardinals " for the " the Cubs / home team " portion of the song.

In 1998, the Cardinals dedicated a bust of Buck that showed him smiling with a hand cupping his left ear.

Joe Buck has also done occasional local telecasts for the Cardinals as well as commercials for a local automobile dealership.

After the 1969 season, Caray was unexpectedly fired as the Cardinals ' lead broadcaster ( his broadcast partner Jack Buck replaced him ).

Buck was born in St. Petersburg, Florida ( where the St. Louis Cardinals, for whom his father broadcast, then conducted their spring training ) and raised in St. Louis where he attended St. Louis Country Day School.

Buck called play-by-play for the then-Louisville Redbirds, a minor league affiliate of the Cardinals, and was a reporter for ESPN's coverage of the Triple-A All-Star Game.

Landis was widely praised for cleaning up the game, although some of his decisions in the Black Sox matter remain controversial: supporters of " Shoeless Joe " Jackson and Buck Weaver contend that he was overly harsh with those players.

The next inning, Buck Martinez ( normally a catcher ) entered the game as the Brewers sixth pitcher of the day.
