Legendary New York Yankees radio broadcaster John Sterling was honored Saturday at Yankee Stadium, days after announcing his retirement.
Sterling, 85, spoke to the media before the Yankees' home game versus the Tampa Bay Rays and emphasized that once the 2024 season began, he didn't believe he could make it through another long campaign after 64 years in broadcasting.
"I can't believe this has happened to me, I retired because I just can't do it," Sterling said. "I can do the games, the games are easy. And working with Suzyn [Waldman] is a lark.
