News & Notes

- Here's a quote from Derek Jeter and a statement from George Steinbrenner about Bob Sheppard:

Jeter: “He’s as much a part of this organization as any player,” Jeter said. “Even though the players change year in and year out, he as the one constant at Yankee Stadium. He was part of the experience. He’s going to be missed.”

The Boss: “I am deeply saddened by the death today of Bob Sheppard, a good friend and fine man whose voice set the gold standard for America’s sports announcers. For over a half century, fans were thrilled to hear his unforgettable voice and players were thrilled to hear his majestic enunciation of their names. Bob Sheppard was a great member of the Yankees family and his death leaves a lasting silence. My thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Mary, and their family.”
