Longtime Yankees play by play guy, John Sterling has passed at age 87. :(
He was before that a broadcaster in Atlanta 1982-7. I’ll never forget not just the game, itself, but also John’s great calls of the amazing 19 inning multiple rain delay Davey Johnson being ejected nearly 4AM (still is latest on record) 4th of July fireworks waking up and scaring ending Mets at Braves Rick Camp 2 outs 0-2 count 18th inning only ever home run game of July 4-5, 1985, which I luckily watched on TV live:
