Profile of Yankees' Radio Man John Sterling


Here's a short post linking to a New York Times piece from over the weekend about Yankees' radio man John Sterling (photo from NYT).

Stories about radio personalities are so rare in the old-school media, I thought it was worth passing along, and it is an interesting slice-of-life. And, I suppose it's inevitable that a Yankees' broadcaster would be a much-loved and much-hated figure, as foreign as that feels from the Seattle viewpoint.

Anyhow, just thinking about baseball on the radio makes me miss Dave Niehaus that much more.
