I have been in sport’s tv nearly 50 years, I can say without equivocation, I have not worked with a finer, classier individual than Ken Singleton. Whether it was at The Baseball Network, FOX, or YES, his presence & talent underscore and define the meaning of true excellence.

@NBAonTNT @sportswatch So much gratitude in play here…thanks for the memories you underscored with your incredible talent; the role you played in my producer development at NBC; and for being a friend to me over these many years. You are a true legend!

Giving fans seven or eight hours of New York-New York baseball on Sept. 12, one day after the 20th anniversary of one of the darkest days in our history, sounded like a better plan than forcing some fans to scramble to change or adjust their plans for the July 4 holiday.

@JackCurryYES Great take Jack.

@kennydejohn Sorry for your loss. I have lost both my parents, not a day goes by that I do not think of them. Stay strong.

[JackCurryYES @JackCurryYES]

By the way, @dcone36 isn’t saying players need to be accountable to just say it. He walked the walked and talked the talk as a player and was as accountable as any player I ever covered.
