John Sterling, whose mellifluous voice became the soundtrack of spring, summer and quite a few Octobers to generations of Yankees fans and who during one stretch broadcast 5,060 consecutive games, has died at 87 years old. Sterling, the Yankees’ radio play-by-play voice for 36 seasons, was behind the microphone for five world championship teams and seven American League pennant winners during a broadcasting career that began upstate at a tiny radio station in Wellsville during the late 1950s and spanned an incredible eight decades.
