From 1997-1999 he worked for The Sporting News Network, then from 1999-2007 as a studio host for pregame and postgame programming for the Chicago Cubs on WGN Radio. Concurrent with that stint, he spent 4 seasons as the radio play-by-play voice of the Loyola Ramblers basketball team (2002-2006). Then he was the radio play-by-play voice for the MLB San Diego Padres and the University of San Diego Toreros basketball team from 2007-2014. Then in 2014 he began working for WGN radio again, and from 2018 through 2019 he was a broadcaster and pregame and postgame studio host on WGN for White Sox radio broadcasts. Plus, he occasionally filled in for Ed Farmer as the radio play-by-play broadcaster during the last couple seasons. He has also done college basketball play-by-play for the Horizon League on ESPN3, for the UW-Milwaukee Panthers on TWC Sports Channel in Milwaukee, and college baseball and softball for the Big 10 Network.
Congratulations to Andy!
