Bob Sheppard, who became the PA announcer at Yankee Stadium on the same day in 1951 that Mickey Mantle made his debut in pinstripes, died yesterday at 99 years of age. He was still working games until three years ago, and Derek Jeter has been using Sheppard's recorded introduction for his at-bats ever since Sheppard left the booth.
