New York Yankees announcer John Sterling is nothing if not a professional.
The longtime Yankees radio voice was struck in the line of duty on Saturday during a night game against the Boston Red Sox. With Yankees reliever Clay Holmes on the mound to, Red Sox designated hitter Justin Turner racked up a full count then hit a pop up foul directly behind home plate.
Sterling, who was working without his usual partner Suzyn Waldman, called the play all the way up to the ball striking him in the forehead, and soldiered on to finish the game. You pretty much have to hear him reacting to the impact in real time:Yankees radio announcer John Sterling got hit by a foul ball, but still called the final outs of the game 🫡
