The St. Louis Cardinals 1974 season was the team's 93rd season in St. Louis, Missouri and the 83rd season in the National League. The Cardinals went 86-75 during the season and finished secondnd in the National League East, a game and-a-half behind the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Outfielder Bake McBride won the Rookie of the Year Award this year, batting .309, with 6 home runs and 56 RBIs.

Outfielder Lou Brock led the NL with 118 stolen bases, breaking the previous MLB single-season mark of 104, set by Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Maury Wills in 1962. Brock broke Wills' record on September 10 in a game against the visiting Philadelphia Phillies. Brock's record still stands as an NL record, but Rickey Henderson of the Oakland Athletics broke the MLB mark in 1982, with 130 steals.
