Al Trautwig, one of the most recognizable sports broadcasters in New York and a fixture at numerous international sporting events for more than three decades, has died. He was 68.
Trautwig's son, Alex, told The Associated Press his father died Sunday at his home on Long Island from complications of cancer.
Trautwig was part of MSG pre- and postgame broadcasts of the NBA's Knicks, NHL's Rangers and Major League Baseball's Yankees. He also worked 16 Olympics, the Indianapolis 500, the Tour de France and the US Open tennis tournament, and won four national Emmy Awards and more than 30 in New York.
