    "The Voice of God" to retire...

    Longtime Yankee PA announcer Bob Sheppard is going to retire...



    I know he wasn't around the past two years.. but can you imagine working until you were 97??

    It just wasn't a Yankee game without hearing his voice over the speakers..

    I hate the Yankees but Bob Sheppard is the first person that comes to mind when I think of "PA Announcer".

    I hope he gets to enjoy his retirement. I know he's been having health issues.

        I had to think for a sec and remember John Facenda already passed away.
