10/06: Bob Sheppard to Miss ALDS, Break Streak of 121 Consecutive Postseason Games
Bryan Hoch reports that, due to a bronchial infection, Bob Sheppard will miss the ALDS, breaking a streak of 121 consecutive home postseason games called. The streak dates back to game 1 of the 1951 World Series! The lineups that day included DiMaggio, Rizzuto, Berra and rookies Mantle and Mays. Wow. Get well soon, Mr. Sheppard.
