Voice of the Yankees
I grew up on Long Island, and although I was originally a Brooklyn Dodgers fan and saw my first game ab Ebbets Field, and my first hero was Pee Wee Reese, when they moved to California I became a Yankees fan. For the last 11 years I have been living in Toledo Ohio (part time in tv) and got to listen to many Detroit Tiger games. I was privileged to be able to enjoy two Giants of the broadcasting industry. Ernie Harwell and Bob Sheppard. Both have recently passed away, but their voices will always be part of my baseball memories. For true baseball fans, these were men that brought class and dignity to my favorite game.
