While most people know Bob Sheppard as the voice of the Yankees. He also was the voice of the Giants for all those years in Yankee Stadium. And even after the team moved giant stadium are all about who grew up with him all the people around the country who might have heard his voice. Well it was unforgettable. Sometimes but sheppard's voice was referred to as the voice of god it was that we -- it was that distinct it was that special. This was a man who wasn't simply look at me announcer.
