Carlos Silva was a regular fixture in the Yankees radio booth, even when he was diagnosed with esophageal and stomach cancer in 2012. Silva's cancer went into remission until this fall and he continued to undergo treatment as he prepared to work with John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman on Yankee radio broadcasts this spring. Silva lost his battle with cancer yesterday after his condition had taken a turn for the worse within the past two weeks. Silva is survived by his wife and his three children.
