Meet Keith Michael Kirby Costas – Photos Of Bob Costas’ Son

Bob Costas, born Robert Quinlan Costas, is an American sportscaster for NBS Sports. He is regularly serving as a sports analyst in NBC Sports since 1980. Besides, Costas worked as the prime-time host of eleven Olympic games from 1992 to 2016. Moreover, Bob Costas also once hosted an interview show ‘Studio 42 with Bob Costas.’ To date, Costas has won several Emmy Awards for his outstanding work.

Bob Costas married twice in his lifetime. His current wife is Jill Sutton. And with his first wife, Carole ‘Randy’ Randall Krummenacher, he has two children. Here, meet one of Bob Costas’ sons, Keith Michael Kirby Costas.

Named After Late Kirby Puckett

The sports commentator Bob Costas took wedding vows with his first wife, Carole ‘Randy’ Randall Krummenacher, in 1983. They enjoyed their married life happily for a decade. However, various marital issues created cracks in their relationship. As a result, the then husband-wife duo, Bob and Carole, ended their marriage with a divorce in 2001.

During the togetherness of Bob and his former wife, Carole Krummenacher, Carole gave birth to Bob’s first child, a son, Keith Michael Kirby Costas, in 1986.

The story behind how Bob Costas’ son got his name began as a gag. While Carole was pregnant with Keith, Bob half-kiddingly promised to Late Kirby Puckett that if he bats over 350 by the time his child was born, he would name the baby Kirby.

By the time Bob welcomed his son, Keith, the former American baseball player, Kirby had scored around .372. At first, Keith’s parents had not added the name Kirby to his name. However, Puckett reminded them of the agreement later. And the birth certificate changed to Keith Michael Kirby Costas.
