(WASHINGTON, DC) - Congressman Russ Carnahan (MO-3) released the following statement in response to the announcement that Stan Musial will receive the 2010 Presidential Medal of Freedom:

"Stan Musial's unrivaled skill in the batter's box can only be matched by his uncommon decency and dedication to the St. Louis community and the country. He exemplifies all that we hope for in our sports heroes and citizens.

"One of my fondest childhood memories was meeting Stan ‘The Man' Musial at the 1964 World's Fair in New York. He made a lasting impression and was an inspiration for me and countless other fans. Thank you to all the fans in Cardinal Nation who stood for Stan."
