Timeline
Harry Christopher "Chip" Caray III (born February 27, 1965) is an American television broadcaster for Bally Sports Midwest coverage of St. Louis Cardinals baseball.
He graduated from the University of Georgia in 1987 with a degree in journalism.
Well before his first big job with Fox, he worked with local television stations in Panama City, Florida, and Greensboro, North Carolina.
He was the play-by-play broadcaster for the Orlando Magic of the NBA from 1989 to 1998.
Caray worked on baseball games for the Seattle Mariners of the American League from 1993 to 1995.
While broadcasting with the Mariners, Caray received a two-game tryout with the St. Louis Cardinals.
After the 1994 season, he was expected to sign with St. Louis, but chose instead to remain with Seattle.
Caray was also a broadcaster for the first edition of Major League Baseball on Fox in 1996.
Chip is also known from his time as a broadcaster for the Fox Saturday Game of the Week and as the television play-by-play broadcaster for the Chicago Cubs from 1998 to 2004.
Caray attended Parkway West High School in Chesterfield, Missouri.
In 1998, Chip Caray was hired to work alongside his grandfather as broadcaster for the Chicago Cubs.
Harry Caray died in February 1998, and Chip stayed with the team and took his grandfather's place as "the voice of the Cubs."
He would go on to serve as their announcer for seven seasons, with Steve Stone providing the color commentary for most of those years.
In 2004, both Caray and Stone left the Cubs booth after the season.
On the final day of the 2004 season, Caray announced that he had signed a long-term contract with both TBS and Clear Channel to work alongside his father, Skip, broadcasting games for the Atlanta Braves, staying closer to his family, who lived in Orlando, Florida.
Chip Caray also became a broadcaster for TBS's college football coverage of the Big 12 and Pac-10.
He joined the Cardinals' broadcast team after leaving the Atlanta Braves, where he had served as the television play-by-play voice from 2005 to 2022.
In 2007, there was a major shake-up of the Braves broadcasters: Don Sutton departed to be the full-time broadcaster with the Washington Nationals; Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren went to the Braves Radio Network full-time; and Joe Simpson signed with Fox Broadcasting Company to be a color analyst on FSN South and Sports South and also signed to call a limited schedule of games on TBS with Chip Caray.
It was announced that Caray would be a broadcaster for TBS, and would be the main play-by-play broadcaster for TBS during its coverage of the Major League Baseball playoffs.
TBS would cover all Division Series games and the National League Championship Series.
Hall of Fame player Tony Gwynn called the playoff games with Caray.
Caray was criticized for making factual mistakes during postseason broadcasts on TBS.
In response to such criticisms, Caray said, "It wasn't the job that I had when I came here in the first place. It would be like being a pinch-hitter or being a relief pitcher that works once every 10 days. I'm better when I work more."
His father, Skip, was the longtime broadcaster for the Atlanta Braves until he died in 2008.
Chip Caray occasionally imitates his father with sarcastic comments made in a high, nasal voice.
Caray also has a half-brother, Josh Caray, who is the play-by-play announcer for the Rocket City Trash Pandas (the Class AA affiliate of the Los Angeles Angels).
Caray is married to Susan.
They have three sons, Chris, Stefan, and Tristan, and a daughter, Summerlyn.
Caray's twin sons, Chris and Stefan, attended the University of Georgia, and began their professional sportscasting career with the Amarillo Sod Poodles, the Texas League affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks.
In 2023, they were placed in the Arizona Fall League broadcast pool.
On November 30, 2009, TBS announced that Caray and the network decided to part ways.
On December 21, 2009, Fox Sports South and SportSouth announced that Caray would be the play-by-play announcer for all 105 Braves games on the networks.
The deal also includes selected college basketball games on the regional sports networks.
On January 23, 2023, it was announced that Caray would become the play-by-play announcer for the St. Louis Cardinals, taking over for longtime broadcaster Dan McLaughlin.
His grandfather had begun his career as the voice of the Cardinals.
Chip Caray's grandfather, Harry, was famous for calling games of the St. Louis Cardinals, Chicago White Sox, and Chicago Cubs.
