Memphis, Tenn. - The St. Louis Cardinals Caravan will make its annual stop at AutoZone Park on Saturday, January 14, 2006 with an added bonus.
Prior to the St. Louis Cardinals appearance the University of Memphis' band along with Pouncer will pump up the crowd. The University of Memphis plays host to the SMU Mustangs Saturday night. The "Mad Hungarian" Al Hrabosky will be the emcee for the event along with current players and former Redbirds Yadier Molina and Randy Flores with newly acquired Aaron Miles. The event will run from 5-7 p.m. on the Club Level at AutoZone Park. St. Louis Cardinals players will answer questions and sign autographs during the event.
Bo Hart, Carmen Cali and Mike Lincoln were joined by Ken Reitz at last year's event. Hart and Cali spent 2005 with the Redbirds, while Lincoln was rehabbing from elbow surgery all season. Reitz was an All-Star third baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals in 1980 and won a Gold Glove in 1975.
