ATLANTA -- The Atlanta Braves announced they will hold a tribute and celebration of Skip Caray Tuesday morning at 10 a.m. at Turner Field.

Speakers include Braves Chairman and CEO Terry McGuirk, Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin, broadcaster Pete Van Wieren and Skip’s son Chip Caray.

Cherished moments will be shared and video tributes will air throughout the ballpark. Fans who wish to attend can park in the Green lot and enter through the Plaza gates. Gates will open at 9 a.m.

The family asks fans to attend Tuesday morning's tribute rather than the funeral.
