In a historic moment for sports broadcasting, father-son duo Chip and Chris Caray called the same baseball game from separate booths on Monday. The game, which took place in Oakland, featured the Oakland A's facing off against the St. Louis Cardinals. Chip Caray, a seasoned broadcaster for the Cardinals, was positioned two booths away from his son Chris, who recently joined the A's broadcasting team. This event marked a continuation of the Caray family's long-standing involvement in sports broadcasting, dating back to 1945, with a nod to Harry Caray who once broadcast for the A's. The emotional highlight of the evening came when Chris, visibly moved, signed off to a break with the words, 'Wow … Cardinals up one.'
