The Voice Is Silenced

Bob Sheppard announced his retirement yesterday and Yankee games will never be the same.  From Joe DiMaggio to Derek Jeter, Sheppard announced every great Yankee in between.  I believe it was Billy Crystal who said, "When I die and go to Heaven I want Bob Sheppard to announce me."

I'll miss his deep, rich voice. May he enjoy many more years (my Gosh, is he really 99?!? I literally grew up listening to his voice . . .).

Yup 99, which means he started with the Yankees at 41- WOW!
