The New York baseball Yankees have extended their contract with WCBS 880-AM to broadcast their games through the 2012 season, meaning that the announcers John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman will most likely come back in their same roles. ?It is anticipated that radio announcers John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman will each return to the radio booth,? the Yankees said in an e-mail Friday.
The Yankees retain the option to extend the agreement for another year after 2012, but the sides plan to enter into discussions to extend the terms of the deal even longer. Sterling has broadcast every Yankee game since 1989. Waldman joined him in the booth in 2005.
