American sportscaster and former musical theater actress, Yankee color commentator since 2005
The longtime Yankees radio voice, John Sterling, has died at age 87. Tributes have poured in from players and colleagues as the team honored him with a pregame ceremony and players wore JS initials on their caps. Sterling called more than 5,420 regular-season games and 211 postseason games before retiring in 2024 and passing away after a heart-related illness.
