ENTERCOM's RADIO.COM is adding a podcast focused on the NEW YORK YANKEES hosted by the team's longtime radio voice JOHN STERLING. "PINSTRIPES & BRIGHT LIGHTS" is posting weekly and will feature STERLING, known for his colorful home run calls playing on batters' names and for his "thuh-uh-uh-uh YANKEES win!" game-closing catchphrase, recounting classic stories from his 30 years with the BRONX BOMBERS.
“As part of our ongoing content strategy, we seek to diversify on-demand audio offerings on RADIO.COM, the premiere destination for live and on-demand audio and sports content in the U.S.,” said RADIO.COM SVP/GM PAM RUSSO. “JOHN is a legendary broadcaster with an unprecedented reputation among baseball fans across the country and we’re looking forward to hearing his insider stories.”
“Having called some of the team’s biggest moments, JOHN STERLING is synonymous with the history of the NEW YORK YANKEES and an iconic voice in the baseball community,” said ENTERCOM NEW YORK SVP MARK CHERNOFF. “His intrinsic connection to the team will offer fans a unique perspective.”
“Throughout the course of my career I’ve been overwhelmed by the outpouring of fan support, so I decided to give back in a slightly different format from the broadcast,” said STERLING. “I have so many stories to tell, having called every single game played by [DEREK] JETER, MARIANO [RIVERA] and many other YANKEE legends. That’s what PINSTRIPES & BRIGHT LIGHTS is all about -- great players and great stories. I can’t wait for everyone to hear it and I’m excited to connect with my listeners over our shared love of this legendary NEW YORK team.”STERLING's game calls are heard on ENTERCOM Sports WFAN-A-F/NEW YORK.
