Harry Christopher "Skip" Caray Jr. (August 12, 1939 – August 3, 2008) was an American sportscaster, best known for his long career as a radio and television play-by-play announcer for the Atlanta Braves of Major League Baseball. He was the son of baseball announcer Harry Caray, and the father of St. Louis Cardinals Play by Play, and former fellow Braves broadcaster Chip Caray; another son, Josh Caray, is the play-by-play announcer for the Rocket City Trash Pandas. Early life and education Skip Caray grew up in baseball as the son of Hall of Fame broadcaster Harry Caray, who would routinely refer to his son at 8:30 p.m. during every broadcast by saying, "Good night, Skippy", a phrase for which the younger Caray was teased throughout his adolescence. He studied television and radio at the University of Missouri where he received a degree in journalism and was a member of Phi Gamma Delta. He began his career in St. Louis calling Saint Louis University and St. Louis Hawks basketball. In 1968, Caray moved with the Hawks to Atlanta, where he also called Atlanta Flames hockey games and did morning sportscasts on WSB-AM.

In September 2007, Caray was not asked to announce League Division Series games on TBS and was kept exclusive to the Braves as the team's broadcasts moved to local Atlanta station WPCH-TV (Peachtree TV, A direct descendant of the original WTBS). Caray felt slighted by the move. Perhaps Caray's most memorable call was his description of Francisco Cabrera's game-winning hit in Game 7 of the 1992 National League Championship Series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The game itself, was ultimately decided on Braves first-baseman Sid Bream beating out Pirates left-fielder Barry Bonds' throw to home plate. Three years later, the Braves defeated the Cleveland Indians in Game 6 of the 1995 World Series to earn the city of Atlanta its first major professional sports championship. Caray called Marquis Grissom catching the final out in center field. According to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Caray's calls of the 1992 pennant win and 1995 World Series win were "the two most iconic calls" in Braves history. Caray was inducted into the Atlanta Braves Hall of Fame in 2004 alongside long-time Braves broadcaster Pete Van Wieren. He has been recognized with six Georgia
