I'm with ya Mojo. He'll be missed. I grew up listening to him on WPIX 11 out of NYC. His "Holy Cow" and "Huckleberry" expressions will live in my memory. Great Man.

The Scooter was the best. I remember watching Yankees games when they played on Ch 11. He and Bill White and then later Bobby Murcer where always entertaining. I can even remember those "Money Store" commercials. I'm only 41yr old but it seems like yesterday. Can you imagine how Michael Kay would have been with Mr.Rizzuto working iwth him??? HOLY COW!!!! It was also very a classy tribute to the Legend. He will be missed.

i think the passing of the scooter will just magnify the horrible announcing job that suzyn waldman and john sterling do on a nightly basis. get someone with personality in there......like the scooter

A lot of people say he only got into the hall of fame because he was a good guy that a lot of people loved.
Maybe, but there are a lot of things worse than being a good guy who is loved by a lot of people.

R.I.P Scooter....all the Yankee community and all the Yankee fans will miss you, and the memories your commentary brought us.

Probably the only baseball color announcer to appear on a rock song. (Dashboard Light by Meatloaf)

I always loved how he'd call somebody a "huckleberry"
