Sad to hear of the death of legendary broadcaster Bob Wolff. I met Mr. Wolf close to 35 years ago, playing with his son Rick with the New Rochelle Robins baseball team. He came to quite a few games, and was a great guy who was very generous. He refused to take a dime to speak at a Salesian HS sports award dinner, when I coached there. Even long after my playing days, whenever our paths would cross at a sporting event, he would always take the time to say hello and talk about the old days spending summer weekends at New Rochelle's City Park. RIP.

Appeared on the radio with him like 25 years ago. Great guy for sure. RIP

A Legend, as his career goes back to 'calling' Don Larsen's perfect WS game in 1956.

He is one of what I imagine is a rather short list to have interviewed Babe Ruth and Derek Jeter.

Growing up in the 60's in New Rochelle, he was all over the airwaves. A gentleman I am sure! RIP
