Harry Caray  was a radio and TV broadcaster for four Major League Baseball teams, beginning with a long tenure doing the games of the St. Louis Cardinals and ending as the iconic announcer for the Chicago Cubs.
Caray went from local favourite to national phenomenon, however, after he joined the Cubs in 1981.
Caray's style became fodder for pop culture parody as well, including a memorable Saturday Night Live recurring sketch featuring Caray (played by Will Ferrell) as a host of a space and astronomy TV talk show, in which his questions to scientists and professors included whether or not they would eat the moon if it were made of spare ribs.
His catchphrases of "Holy Cow!" and "Cubs win! Cubs win!" after every Cub triumph were genuine, unfeigned enthusiasm.
The seventh-inning stretch routine became Caray's best-remembered trademark.
 Many of these performances began with Caray speaking directly to the Wrigley faithful, either about the state of the day's game, or the Chicago weather, while the park organ held the opening chord of the song. Then with his trademark opening, "Alright! Lemme hear ya! Ah-One! Ah-Two! Ah-Three!" Harry would launch into his distinctive, down-tempo version of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame". For the lyrics "One, Two, Three, strikes you're out...." Harry would usually hold the microphone out to the crowd to puncuate the climactic end of the song. And if the visitors were ahead in that game, Harry would typically make a plea to the Cubs offense- "Let's Get Some Runs!"
