Joe Hernandez (June 3, 1909 – February 2, 1972) was a race caller who primarily called thoroughbred horse races at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California from the time the track opened on Christmas Day of 1934 until his death in 1972. During that time, he called a total of 15,587 races at the California track. Over the course of his career, his cry of "There they go!" echoed over a number of notable races including Seabiscuit’s win in the 1940 Santa Anita Handicap and Johnny Longden’s last ride in 1966.
