Ravens hire Kyle Youmans as radio play-by-play announcer

For the first time in two decades, the Ravens have a new radio play-by-play announcer.

Kyle Youmans will be the third Voice of the Ravens in franchise history, the team announced today. He replaces Gerry Sandusky, who retired in April after 20 seasons on the job. Before Sandusky, Scott Garceau served as the Ravens’ radio voice for the first 10 years of the team’s existence.

“It is the honor of my career to be named the next ‘Voice of the Ravens.’ I extend my gratitude to the Ravens organization for trusting me with such a coveted role, and I offer a sincere congratulations to Gerry Sandusky for a wonderful 20 years with the Ravens and an incredible broadcasting career in Baltimore. Gerry wasn’t just a voice, he was a pillar of Baltimore sports fandom, and I look forward to building that same kind of relationship with The Flock — both through their speakers and in the community,” Youmans said.

Youmans spent the last seven seasons working on the Cowboys’ media team as an on-air reporter and producer.
