NBC Sports Bay Area is losing another familiar face.
Carlos Ramirez revealed Sunday that he is leaving the regional sports network after four and a half years, making him the latest high-profile departure from the station in 2026.
“It’s hard to put into words what the past four and a half years meant to me,” Ramirez wrote in a post on X.
“I had the opportunity to fulfill a lifelong dream, working alongside some of the most talented people in sports media, and calling the Bay Area home.”
While Ramirez initially became a regular presence on the network’s San Francisco Giants pregame and postgame coverage, his role evolved in recent years as he took over as the primary host for the San Francisco 49ers’ studio programming.
He also appeared across coverage of the Sacramento Kings and Athletics after joining the network full-time in 2022.
Known for his bilingual reporting, Ramirez frequently conducted interviews with Spanish-speaking athletes during broadcasts.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Ramirez also works as a play-by-play announcer for the San Jose Earthquakes and Major League Soccer on Apple TV.
Although he did not reveal where he is headed next, Ramirez hinted that another opportunity is already lined up.
“A new chapter begins and I can’t wait to share more about it with all of you very soon,” he wrote.
Ramirez’s final appearance on the network came during the Athletics’ postgame show alongside Shooty Babbitt.
His departure comes just months after fellow NBC Sports Bay Area personality Laura Britt also left the network.
Britt announced her exit in March 2026 before signing off in May, ending an eight-year tenure as the lead anchor and primary pregame and postgame host for Giants coverage. She said she was relocating to Atlanta to be closer to her family.
With Ramirez gone, NBC Sports Bay Area’s remaining full-time studio hosts include Kylen Mills, who handles Giants coverage, and Bonta Hill, the network’s multiplatform host covering the Golden State Warriors, San Francisco 49ers and Giants.
