**ST. LOUIS, Mo., April 2, 2024 – **The St. Louis Cardinals announced that the Cardinals
Hall of Fame and Museum, located on the second floor of Cardinals Nation at Ballpark
Village, will unveil its new featured exhibit entitled “**¡Viva! Los Cardenales**”
on Thursday, April 4, before the team’s home opener.  The exhibit celebrates the
Cardinals’ Hispanic and Latin players through the history of the organization, telling
both the stories of those who had longevity with the team and others where St. Louis
was just a short moment in their baseball journey.

In addition to featuring artifacts such as jerseys, gloves, bats, and caps, the 
exhibit highlights all 176 Hispanic and/or Latin Cardinals players from 10 different
countries/territories, discussing the origins of baseball in that particular country
and how it is played today.  Other featured topics include momentous “firsts”, awards
won, the story of El Birdos, the first Hispanic coach and manager in MLB, the beginnings
of the Cardinals Spanish broadcasts, and “Polo-isms” by Cardenales Spanish broadcaster
Polo Ascencio.

For the first time, the museum’s exhibits will have printed bilingual labels—in 
both English and Spanish.  The Cardinals Museum staff worked with the Hispanic Festival,
Inc. for translations to ensure each country’s label was in their appropriate Spanish
dialect.

“We are proud to share the stories of our Hispanic and Latin players and their many
contributions that are such an important part of our club’s history.” said **Amy
Berra**, Manager & Curator of the Cardinals Hall of Fame & Museum.  “Beyond showcasing
the many Hispanic and Latin players that have worn the ‘Birds on the Bat’, our new
featured exhibit explores the history of Hispanic/Latin player participation in 
Major League Baseball and how they were able to increase their representation over
the decades.”

This exhibit will be open through February 2025 and is included with admission to
the Cardinals Museum.  The Museum is open daily from 10 AM-6 PM and remains open
through the seventh inning during home night games.
