Celebrity Jersey Cards #738 Charlie Brennan & John Rooney

Celebrity Jersey Cards is a weekly series in which I create virtual trading cards for celebrities wearing pro jerseys. I continue my season-long march through all MLB teams.

For nearly 34 years, Charlie Brennan was "The Voice of St. Louis." Hired in 1988 by KMOX, he began working the mid-morning shift two years later and stayed there until 2022 when he retired. He was inducted into the St. Louis Radio Hall of Fame in 2009.The author of several books, Brennan is known for leading community efforts in St. Louis. I am happy to bestow a Celebrity Jersey Card on him for his service.

Richmond, Missouri native John Rooney has been an MLB broadcaster since 1988. After eight seasons with the Chicago White Sox, Rooney joined his home state St. Louis Cardinals broadcasting team. At 70, he is still going strong, delighting Redbirds fans. One day (probably soon), he will get the Ford Frick Award from the Baseball Hall of Fame.
