Go here....

Bob Sheppard, longtime Yankee Stadium announcer, dies at 99 - ESPN New York (http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/mlb/news/story?id=5371001)

I'm not a Yankees fan and I'm more of a hater to be honest... Swept the Brave's in the 99 World Series... Also beat them in the 96 as well...

Yet still this is sad news to hear and my heart goes out to his family/Yankees/fans that enjoy him for many years...

From the vid he seemed like a very nice guy.....

I heard about it earlier today. RIP.

And yankees didn't sweep the braves in the 09 World Series. They won 4-2 against the Phillies.

I'm just glad that the Yankee's missed out on getting Cliff Lee... If they got him it would of been over in my opinion...

I meant 99 not 09.. Either way the Yankee's won.. Players cant stop looking at those darn stripes on their uniforms
