I believe that was due to the score but I may be wrong.
Rooney is from Missouri and and huge Cardinal fan. After winning the series with the Sox here in Chicago and a position opening up with the Cards I really don't think Jerry could have done anything to keep him. It was an amazin 14 years with him and Farmio on the radio, they were without a doubt the best. Rooney played a great "straight man" to Farmer, their chemistry was real. You can still catch Rooney on the ESPN radio game of the week either Sat. or Sundays.
