Why do the St. Louis Cardinals start their games 10 minutes later than the rest of the league?

Question

For Cardinals fans (and I know there's a lot of them); I'm simply curious about this. Is there a tradition, etc. associated with this?? I've noticed that evening games will begin at 7:15 instead of 7:05, day games at 1:15 instead of 1:05, and so on.

Answer 1

its the same with the Chicago Whitesox the tv stations have promotional obligations 2 fulfill and must play a certain ammount of commercials and adds so the stations will continue to have funding its doesnt matter live because they dont start without the tv stations
