Show Notes

Suzyn Waldman is an icon of the airwaves. She’s the trailblazing pioneer with a Boston accent who built a home - and a legacy - in the Bronx. She walked away from the bright lights of Broadway to make a different kind of mark for herself in the male-dominated world of sports. Now nearly four decades later and against most odds, she’s changed baseball’s broadcast game for women and men everywhere. The National Radio Hall of Fame Inductee and legendary Yankee’s color commentator overcame sexism, discrimination and critique sometimes with grace, but always with grit. In doing so, she succeeded when many thought she wouldn’t, and became a stalwart of the game as deeply woven into pinstripe lore as the hard hitting legends who came before her.
