2:47
Speaker 1: the NBA. Talk to you guys on hold one to
2:48
Speaker 1: still yap about the NBA playoffs. However, we are going
2:52
Speaker 1: to change it up a little bit here and our
2:54
Speaker 1: lead story is out of the Bronx. We're not going
2:56
Speaker 1: to break down the Yankee Oriole game on Monday. We're
2:59
Speaker 1: not doing that. However, we did lose one of the
3:01
Speaker 1: great voices of baseball. Depending on how old you are,
3:05
Speaker 1: this guy, someone's been around a long time, did it
3:08
Speaker 1: very well and has now unfortunately crossed over the pearly gates.
3:12
Speaker 1: I assume you've heard by now, but possibly not John Sterling,
3:16
Speaker 1: the exuberant radio voice of the New York Yankees radio broadcasts.
3:22
Speaker 1: He did it with a flare and just had his
3:26
Speaker 1: own spin to it, the home run calls, as he
3:29
Speaker 1: was known for a big part of Yankee baseball in
3:33
Speaker 1: their last glory days when they were winning the World
3:36
Speaker 1: Series every couple of years there, when they had Jorge
3:39
Speaker 1: Pasada and Mariano Rivera and Derek Jeter and those guys,
3:43
Speaker 1: and we're winning all the time.
3:45
Speaker 2: Hey cays waiting me, Hi, guys win all of that.
3:49
Speaker 1: So that's what he said after wins, when say it
3:52
Speaker 1: after losses, and he has died crossing over the pearly
3:56
Speaker 1: gates there on Monday eighty seven, coming in here, there
4:01
Speaker 1: and everywhere from around baseball, Yankee legends, young and old,
4:06
Speaker 1: young and old, all had something they wanted to say
4:10
Speaker 1: about John Sterling. Seems everyone has a story about John Sterling,
4:15
Speaker 1: the golden voice of the Yankees for all of those
4:19
Speaker 1: years on the radio. So that is a good jumping
4:22
Speaker 1: out point. I would like to join in. I have
4:24
Speaker 1: some thoughts on this, as some of you know that
4:27
Speaker 1: we've had John on the podcast, and I had had
4:31
Speaker 1: John when I used to do a weekend show here.
4:33
Speaker 1: We had John Sterling on a few times, very very
4:37
Speaker 1: kind to me over the years. I didn't interact with
4:40
Speaker 1: him all that often. I did put me a handful
4:43
Speaker 1: of times in person and was always really cool.
4:46
Speaker 2: It was always really cool.
4:48
Speaker 1: So let's get into it the question how are you
4:50
Speaker 1: going to remember? How are you going to remember Yankee
4:54
Speaker 1: broadcaster John Sterling. So there's always the micro and the
4:58
Speaker 1: macro on this. I've got bedazzled.
5:01
Speaker 2: Kool aid Man and Rare.
5:03
Speaker 1: Spice and we'll combine all of these things together.
5:08
Speaker 2: And we are going to make a Broadway show.
5:11
Speaker 1: Because that's one of the things that pops in my
5:13
Speaker 1: head when I think about John Sterling calling Yankee baseball.
5:17
Speaker 2: Now, number what number one? Number one? Number one?
5:23
Speaker 1: Okay, I think of John Sterling as what I would
5:27
Speaker 1: call a broadcasters broadcaster, if you know what I mean. Uh,
5:31
Speaker 1: And don't kid yourself, and we don't need to go
5:34
Speaker 1: too deep on this. He wasn't playing it straight down
5:37
Speaker 1: the middle. That wasn't the way he did it. Many
5:43
Speaker 1: ways to make a bed, there's more than one, and
5:45
Speaker 1: there's more than one way to do a broadcast.
5:47
Speaker 2: Now.
5:48
Speaker 1: I grew up with Vin Scully who attempted to play
5:51
Speaker 1: it right down the middle and all that. John Sterling
5:54
Speaker 1: never attempted to play it right down the middle. You
5:56
Speaker 1: always knew where John Sterling was in relationship to where
6:00
Speaker 1: the game was, the score of the game, how the
6:02
Speaker 1: season was going for the Yankees. And Sterling took that approach,
6:08
Speaker 1: the play it down the middle approach, and he took
6:10
Speaker 1: it like a piece of paper, and.
6:12
Speaker 2: He kind of.
6:15
Speaker 1: He crumbled up the piece of paper and he tossed
6:17
Speaker 1: it into the Hudson possibly the East River, but I
6:21
Speaker 1: think it was the Hudson and he went full opposite.
6:25
Speaker 1: He went the other direction there, and it worked for him.
6:27
Speaker 2: He was a.
6:28
Speaker 1: Debonair guy, well dressed, obviously charismatic as the Yankee play
6:33
Speaker 1: by play guy. And in my conversations with John Sterling
6:37
Speaker 1: the few times that we had him on the radio
6:39
Speaker 1: and whatnot, he was fully aware that his audience was
6:43
Speaker 1: not the NPR audience.
6:46
Speaker 2: They wanted to show, Okay, they wanted to show.
6:49
Speaker 1: And you can think who's listening to Yankee Baseball on
6:51
Speaker 1: the radio as people driving around, people at work that
6:56
Speaker 1: are working the night shift, because most Yankee games are
6:59
Speaker 1: at nights, people that don't have access to television blind,
7:04
Speaker 1: I mean, those are the people that are listening to
7:05
Speaker 1: Yankee Baseball. So yeah, guys listening to you, they're likely
7:09
Speaker 1: going home from work, driving to work, they're working the
7:11
Speaker 1: late shift and all that. These are Yankee hardos, and
7:14
Speaker 1: Sterling embraced that he did, and he did that broadcast
7:19
Speaker 1: for the diehard, the faithful Brox Bomber fans, and he
7:24
Speaker 1: fed them a study diet of theater. His play by
7:29
Speaker 1: play technique was theatrical. Is the word I will use
7:33
Speaker 1: here he was not a broadcaster per se. He was
7:37
Speaker 1: a one man Broadway production Yankees winning Yankees, and he
7:45
Speaker 1: had a press box seat. And most announcers just described
7:48
Speaker 1: the moment. They just describe what's going on. Sterling decorated it.
7:54
Speaker 2: He did.
7:55
Speaker 1: He bedazzled the broadcast and some conversations via text with
8:01
Speaker 1: some friends of mine who do that kind of work
8:03
Speaker 1: for a living. And the thing that was noted to me.
8:05
Speaker 1: And I think it's a fair point. Most of Sterling's
8:08
Speaker 1: career as a broadcaster was before social media. Yet he
8:12
Speaker 1: provided In the old days, we used to play a
8:14
Speaker 1: lot of those those cuts, the play by play cuts
8:18
Speaker 1: on the radio. He had updates, live updates. In the
8:20
Speaker 1: old days, stations had live updates, and so we'd play
8:23
Speaker 1: those things at night. And the late great Frank Pollock,
8:26
Speaker 1: May he rest in peace. Frank's probably busting John Stoling's
8:30
Speaker 1: balls right now at some kind of a buffet on
8:32
Speaker 1: the other side right there, yapping to each other.
8:34
Speaker 2: But Frank Polk was my boardop for years, and Frank
8:36
Speaker 2: was a legend.
8:37
Speaker 1: He was a chick hern the famous Laker broadcaster, his boardop,
8:41
Speaker 1: and we had so much fun when Frank was my
8:43
Speaker 1: board up because we would just do the Yankee rundown.
8:47
Speaker 1: And it wasn't because we were just trying to kill time.
8:49
Speaker 1: We just loved all the stupid drops that John Sterling
8:52
Speaker 1: provided us. But he bedazzled the broadcast. He put jazz
8:56
Speaker 1: hands off the whole thing. He didn't just call the game,
9:00
Speaker 1: arised the broadcast and in the Big Apple, you know,
9:05
Speaker 1: you got a guy.
9:06
Speaker 2: Like Sterling, so well, this is what are you doing here?
9:08
Speaker 1: It's just the Yankees, this is the Wall Street crowd,
9:10
Speaker 1: like the Mets of the Long Island construction workers and
9:13
Speaker 1: the Yankees of the Wall Street people and all that.
9:16
Speaker 1: And he laid that that shtick, as my grandfather would
9:20
Speaker 1: say that stikla. He laid that on thicker than a
9:23
Speaker 1: piece of cheesecake, just really thick the New York cheese
9:27
Speaker 1: cake every night.
9:28
Speaker 2: And to his credit, and this is the way you're
9:30
Speaker 2: supposed to do it.
9:31
Speaker 1: And the people that know what they're doing every night,
9:33
Speaker 1: you treat it like it's the most important broadcast and
9:37
Speaker 1: not just Game seventy seven of one hundred and sixty two.
9:40
Speaker 1: And you're playing in Seattle and it's ten thirty at
9:44
Speaker 1: night in New York and no one's listening. You treat
9:46
Speaker 1: it differently, you treat it as it matters. And he
9:49
Speaker 1: was larger than life, he louder than life and unapologetically
9:54
Speaker 1: just gave you more. John Sterling the last true ring
9:58
Speaker 1: master of the theatrical baseball radio broadcast and people die said.
10:05
Speaker 2: Well, they'll never be another one like them, And that's
10:07
Speaker 2: generally true for all of us.
10:08
Speaker 1: We're all individuals, right, We're all individuals in terms of
10:12
Speaker 1: the skill set. Though there can never be another John Sterling.
10:16
Speaker 1: He would not be allowed to work the corporate bull crap.
10:19
Speaker 1: John Sterling is a product of his era. Obviously, we're
10:22
Speaker 1: all products of our era. And he came in when
10:24
Speaker 1: sports was a mom and pop operation, which meant people
10:28
Speaker 1: that owned teams were regular people. They weren't conglaborates, they
10:31
Speaker 1: weren't hedge funds, and they appreciated that type of work. Now,
10:36
Speaker 1: oh my god, you're embarrassing the brand. What are you doing?
10:41
Speaker 1: And even no, George Steinbrenner, the guy that was there
10:44
Speaker 1: that hired John Sterling, has been dead for many years.
10:48
Speaker 1: It's still a family business. The kids kept John Sterling
10:51
Speaker 1: employed up until just a few years ago when he
10:54
Speaker 1: could no longer do it. Now flipping the page, but
10:57
Speaker 1: not far as it is the hour of tribute to
11:00
Speaker 1: the Great John Sterling, the late great John Sterling, who passed.
11:03
Speaker 2: Away this week at the age of eighty seven.
11:06
Speaker 1: So what was the secret sauce that made John Sterling
11:10
Speaker 1: such a unique character in Yankee broadcasting. He's just baseball
11:15
Speaker 1: broadcasting in general, So this is simple. He didn't just
11:20
Speaker 1: call a game, he performed it. Now, I worked with
11:23
Speaker 1: a guy and I forget his name. I did a
11:24
Speaker 1: TV show with him for a couple of years and
11:26
Speaker 1: he said to me, this is not John Sterling. But
11:29
Speaker 1: he said to me, the key is to make it
11:30
Speaker 1: all about you. I think his name was Looney or
11:33
Speaker 1: something like that. Well, anyway, it turns out that John
11:36
Speaker 1: Sterling made it all about him and it worked.
11:39
Speaker 2: It worked right.
11:41
Speaker 1: And most broadcasters kind of melted into the background and
11:44
Speaker 1: you're whispering the game, and you're giving the out of
11:46
Speaker 1: town scoreboard and you're reading all that like it's a library.
11:50
Speaker 1: John Sterling he broadcast the game as if he was
11:54
Speaker 1: crashing through a wall like that picture shaped kool aid Man,
11:58
Speaker 1: shouting oh yeah, loud and proud, and you weren't tuning
12:03
Speaker 1: in for the Yankees per se, you were tuning in
12:06
Speaker 1: for the Sterling cinematic universe, where every at bat, every
12:12
Speaker 1: at bat was what it was, a brand launch, and
12:15
Speaker 1: every player had a Marvel style origin story, every one
12:21
Speaker 1: of them. Right, home run, please, come on? That wasn't
12:23
Speaker 1: just a home run? What do you even naive? No,
12:26
Speaker 1: that was a fireworks show with catchphrases attached.
12:30
Speaker 3: Hey, mom from a rod, a burn, baby burn, all
12:35
Speaker 3: of them all rise, Here comes the Judge, the Giambino,
12:40
Speaker 3: the thriller from Godzilla for Hideki Matsu.
12:45
Speaker 1: Now, my two favorites are not mentioned very often because
12:50
Speaker 1: they're not great ballplayers. My two favorite calls that John
12:53
Speaker 1: Sterling had that I repeated for many years. In fact
12:55
Speaker 1: I often still repeat them, is one for Curtis Granderson,
13:00
Speaker 1: the Grandee Man can the Grande Man Can loved it.
13:05
Speaker 1: And Robbie Cano and all that was when Canoe would
13:09
Speaker 1: hit a home run, he'd say, Robbie Cano, don't you know?
13:13
Speaker 2: And that was it. And when the game dragged, Sterling said,
13:17
Speaker 2: we need more juice. I'll give you some more juice.
13:21
Speaker 2: I remember it was visiting my brother who lives in
13:23
Speaker 2: New York, and I was we were in a with
13:25
Speaker 2: my car. But we were driving around and the guy
13:27
Speaker 2: who in the car it was like a taxis a
13:28
Speaker 2: long time ago. And they had the Yankee game on
13:32
Speaker 2: and it was just the start of the Yankee broadcast
13:34
Speaker 2: and John Sterling did about ten minutes of commercials. At
13:37
Speaker 2: the start he'd be like, the Yankee baseball is not
13:40
Speaker 2: to you, I BMW and then you know, you're.
13:43
Speaker 1: Like seventeen different car dealerships. He'd do a bunch of
13:46
Speaker 1: financial companies because of the Wall Street crowd.
13:48
Speaker 2: And all that.
13:49
Speaker 1: It was just it was hilarious, right, but he was
13:51
Speaker 1: unapologetically himself.
13:54
Speaker 2: And you know, why fit in? As the I learned
13:56
Speaker 2: this from doctor Seuss. Why fit in?
13:58
Speaker 1: We were born to stand out right? And Sterling didn't
14:00
Speaker 1: describe the moment he became the moment. Now, in closing
14:04
Speaker 1: on this tribute to John Sterling, the question, now, is
14:08
Speaker 1: is it true that John Sterling was a friend of
14:11
Speaker 1: the show. So I would say, yes, John Sterling was
14:14
Speaker 1: not listen. We didn't have him on all the time
14:16
Speaker 1: and all that. John Sterling, I interviewed him a few
14:20
Speaker 1: times and when you chatted with him. The thing I
14:23
Speaker 1: will say about this Sterling, and I've been lucky enough
14:26
Speaker 1: to meet some of these people that are big time broadcasters,
14:28
Speaker 1: and a lot of them are total schmucks. They're just douchebags,
14:32
Speaker 1: complete a holes. You don't want to deal with these people,
14:36
Speaker 1: just bad people. John Sterling. My interaction with him was
14:39
Speaker 1: very positive. I met him in Anaheim at an Angel
14:43
Speaker 1: Yankee game back in the glory days of the Yankees,
14:45
Speaker 1: when I was out of the games all the time,
14:47
Speaker 1: and I introduced myself and he seemed to genuinely care
14:51
Speaker 1: what I was doing. I'm sure he didn't give a
14:53
Speaker 1: rats ask what I was doing, but he seemed he
14:55
Speaker 1: seemed to care what I was doing.
14:58
Speaker 2: And he gave me his.
14:59
Speaker 1: Phone numbers, say if you never need anything, give me
15:01
Speaker 1: a call. I'd love to go on your show or whatever.
15:03
Speaker 1: So I said, okay. And did I use the call
15:06
Speaker 1: the number all the time? No, it was like a
15:08
Speaker 1: rare spice, you know, rare spice you don't use all
15:10
Speaker 1: the time. It's a rare spice. Only certain recipes require
15:13
Speaker 1: a rare spice. So I didn't call him all the time.
15:15
Speaker 1: And the fact that just gave me the number and
15:17
Speaker 1: he always answered or either called back, and that that's
15:21
Speaker 1: very and he had.
15:22
Speaker 2: To leave a voicemail.
15:23
Speaker 1: He didn't do text, didn't do the text, so you
15:25
Speaker 1: had to do the voicemail and all that. And he'd
15:27
Speaker 1: call you right back and he'd add, hello, this is
15:31
Speaker 1: John and all that. And we had him on Fox
15:35
Speaker 1: Sports Radio a couple times when I was doing some
15:36
Speaker 1: weekend shows. We had him on the fifth hour a
15:38
Speaker 1: couple of years back. And every time I reached out
15:41
Speaker 1: to him, he was like, I can do it. Here's
15:44
Speaker 1: the times I can do it. I'd love to do it.
15:46
Speaker 1: He never turned me down one time, and he certainly
15:49
Speaker 1: could have and he didn't. And I think part of
15:52
Speaker 1: it was he was kind of lonely unfortunately at the
15:53
Speaker 1: end there he was just kind of hanging out watching
15:56
Speaker 1: reruns of old movies and stuff at night.
15:58
Speaker 2: I don't know, but he was very nice.
15:59
Speaker 1: To me, and I would give him on my report card,
16:03
Speaker 1: John Sterling. I wrote down mensch with a not a
16:07
Speaker 1: you know, not a capitol M mench, A mench on
16:11
Speaker 1: the bench if you will here underline it twice if
16:13
Speaker 1: you want to just a good just a good guy.
16:16
Speaker 1: And he once told me, and I mentioned that when
16:19
Speaker 1: I was driving around, I wasn't driving somebody else's driving.
16:21
Speaker 1: We were in New York in a cab and they
16:23
Speaker 1: had the beginning of the Yankee broadcast and they had
16:24
Speaker 1: like ten minutes of commercials. Like, my god, was this ridiculous?
16:27
Speaker 1: Which sometimes sounds like our show during super Bowl week
16:30
Speaker 1: or whatever, but I was like whatever, And John gave
16:34
Speaker 1: me this whole lecture about how he's like, listen, the
16:36
Speaker 1: most important thing. He summed up this tremendous wisdom. He said,
16:40
Speaker 1: the most important thing is to sell the soap. You
16:43
Speaker 1: gotta sell the soap. And that's the line I took
16:46
Speaker 1: away from that conversation, the last one we had on
16:48
Speaker 1: the podcast a couple of years ago, and that's it.
16:52
Speaker 1: I mean nine words. The most important thing is to
16:56
Speaker 1: sell the soap.
16:56
Speaker 2: That's it. Nine words. That's all you got. And the
16:59
Speaker 2: Hall of.
16:59
Speaker 1: Fame wisdom by John Sterling. And you can't do that
17:02
Speaker 1: with an algorithm. I don't care how great your AI is.
17:05
Speaker 1: You can't recreate John Sterling and not a focus group.
17:11
Speaker 2: You can't. You just can't do it.
17:13
Speaker 1: It will never happen again because until baseball, these sports
17:17
Speaker 1: leagues go back to the mom and pop days, which
17:19
Speaker 1: I don't see that ever, happening in my lifetime. The
17:21
Speaker 1: corporations won't allow it. If you say anything on the edge,
17:25
Speaker 1: you get a phone call, you get a text message, Hey,
17:28
Speaker 1: ease up on these guys.
17:29
Speaker 2: Well, even when I did it.
17:32
Speaker 1: Uh, there was a game there was like seven errors
17:35
Speaker 1: in a game and I was ripping the defense and
17:38
Speaker 1: I pointed that out and then they they got upset
17:41
Speaker 1: with me. But anyway, Sterling, good for a life well
17:44
Speaker 1: lived for John Sterley. Too many broadcasters today sound like
17:48
Speaker 1: elevator music and they're afraid to wake up the baby, and.
17:54
Speaker 2: They're whispering like they're golf announcers. And John Sterling woke
17:58
Speaker 2: up the whole building and didn't care.
18:01
Speaker 1: And that was it. And there were some tremendous bloopers.
18:05
Speaker 1: You know, John's vision wasn't very good effect. The last
18:07
Speaker 1: time I saw him in person was a Yankee Dodger
18:09
Speaker 1: game at Yankee Stadium a couple of years at Dodger Stadium,
18:12
Speaker 1: right a couple years back, and I kind of snuck
18:14
Speaker 1: in the back of the Yankee radio booth and John
18:16
Speaker 1: was calling the game off the television, which was fine,
18:20
Speaker 1: except sometimes the TV is a little delayed on that
18:24
Speaker 1: and of course the most famous John Sterling blooper was
18:27
Speaker 1: when I think it was Justin Turner was playing for
18:29
Speaker 1: the Red Sox and he fouled the ball back to
18:31
Speaker 1: the press box and it joinked off John Sterling's head
18:36
Speaker 1: while he was calling. He didn't even he was like
18:38
Speaker 1: because he wasn't paying attention. It was like, but rest
18:40
Speaker 1: in peace, John Sterling. Just a tremendous character in our lives,
18:44
Speaker 1: and it was great to I didn't obviously grow up
18:47
Speaker 1: in New York, didn't live in New York, heard him
18:49
Speaker 1: on the Internet and whatnot over the years and when
18:52
Speaker 1: I visited family there, So rest in peace, John Sterling.
18:56

27:43

Speaker 2: even let him go back to Denver.
39:36
Speaker 1: The way he played in that game. So, yeah, they
39:39
Speaker 1: got to do something. They've got a couple more years
39:41
Speaker 1: to play with with Jokish before this thing completely goes
39:43
