Stefan welcomes listeners to a “special edition” of Cards Central 365, joined by his father, longtime Cardinals broadcaster Chip Caray, and his twin brother Chris Caray, who works with NBC Sports and covers the Athletics. The show centered on the Cardinals’ lopsided Labor Day loss to Oakland (11–3), while also highlighting both teams’ futures and family dynamics.

A’s offensive surge: Oakland exploded late, scoring 8 runs between the 6th and 8th innings. They’ve built a reputation as a late-scoring, young offensive team with nearly half their runs coming via home runs.

Cardinals struggles: Sonny Gray was hit hard, particularly by back-to-back home runs that shifted momentum. The Cardinals’ bullpen of younger arms couldn’t contain the A’s lineup.

Chip’s perspective: He noted the A’s long tradition of roster turnover, but praised their “impressive young offensive bunch” as legitimate long-term threats.

The Carays mixed in plenty of humor:

Jokes about Chris’ pale complexion and “Twilight vampire casting.”

Playful banter over who inherited what traits from their dad.

A running gag about hugs, handshakes, and Chip “peacocking” in his new St. Louis role compared to Atlanta.

Chip grew reflective, expressing pride in his sons’ careers in broadcasting and appreciation for being able to share the booth and the family’s “business.”
