Bobby Murcer Nominated for Ford Frick Award

Bobby Murcer's year started off poorly- diagnosis and treatment of brain cancer. But our all-time favorite Yankee came back strong, appearing on several YES broadcasts, and has been nominated for the annual Ford C. Frick Award.

The award is given to those broadcasters who made a major contribution to baseball, and is presented during the annual hall of fame induction ceremonies.

Other current and former Yankee broadcasters who are eligible for the award are John Sterling, Michael Kay (maybe Joe Torre can prevent him from getting it), Ken Singleton, Phil Rizzuto, Frank Messer, Bill White, Jim Kaat, and Tony Kubek.
