At the beginning of the station's post-game show, John Sterling the radio voice of the New York Yankees took time on air to thank WCBS for their 21 historic years covering the Yankees. "I will be missed if didn't thank my support staff at CBS and WCBS in New York, the greatest, their the greatest people who did tremendous work every single day," Sterling said in tears as he may called his last Yankees game as an play-by-play man.
Now with the CBS Radio News station no longer airs sports programming on its New York line-up and sister station WFAN will begin airing the Yankees in 2014, there are words that the Mets may find its new radio home somewhere over at WEPN (98.7 FM) and ESPN Radio, but it's too early to tell once the World Series ends this season.
