The second and final hour of tonight’s Sports Open Line is abridged due to KMOX’s broadcast of the Cardinals-Giants game. Matt continues the discussion on the hopeful return of the Paul DeJong of old, the Cardinals’ outfield depth, and previews the series against the Giants with beat writer Danny Emerman of KNBR Radio in San Francisco.
