Bob Sheppard passes away


The Yankees just announced that Bob Sheppard has passed away. He was 99 years old. His wife was with him when he died.

Obviously, taking the job when I did, I never met Mr. Sheppard. I’ll have player reaction when the clubhouse opens. For now, the Yankees sent this lengthy obituary.

It is with deep sadness that the New York Yankees announce the passing of longtime public address announcer Bob Sheppard – “The Voice of Yankee Stadium.” Sheppard passed away this morning at his home in Baldwin, N.Y., with his wife, Mary, by his side. He was 99 years old.
