John Sterling Returns to Yankees Radio Booth

John Sterling, the iconic voice of the New York Yankees, made a notable return to the radio booth after a five-month retirement, calling the team's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The 86-year-old broadcaster, who initially retired in April after 36 seasons, will cover the Yankees' final six home games and their postseason run. He expressed excitement about returning while acknowledging the challenges of a full-time schedule, hinting at the possibility of a weekly show in the future. During his comeback, Sterling showcased his signature home run calls, including one for Aaron Judge's 56th homer of the season. His return was facilitated by WFAN executive Chris Oliviero, allowing him to contribute without the demands of a full 162-game season. Sterling's humor and enthusiasm remain strong, marking a special moment in Yankees history as he approaches the 65th anniversary of his radio career.
