Geoffrey 779 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 ABC 7 appeared to be first local station to break in with news of Steinbrenner's death just after 9:45. PIX 11 (with John Muller) was next. FOX 5 reported it a few minutes later, even though they were already on the air with their regular 9 a.m. show. NBC 4 was next and CBS 2 was last. 11 was first to return to regular programming and everyone else followed suit at 10:00 or a few minutes after.

j.wer 12 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I believe in your haste you mentioned GS as Yankee Manager. As we all know, he was the Yankees Owner. He purchased the Yankees from CBS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevieboy247 42 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I had other commitments and did not hear about it until a friend of mine told me around 2PM today. And as far as tonight's All-Star Game goes. I imagine they're going to have some tributes before the start of the game, along with some heavy hearts of course. Truly an End of an Era for not just the Yanks, but for all of Baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
