John Sterling dies: 9 incredible calls from the legendary Yankees announcer

According to New York's WFAN, John Sterling has died at the age of 87.

“We are devastated to hear about the passing of John Sterling," read the post on social media, "a WFAN and Yankees radio icon whose voice was synonymous with an entire generation of Yankee fandom."

Sterling was as iconic of a voice in New York as anyone. He brought his quirky brand of humor to the radio booth calling New York Yankees games for decades. He was also a Nets and Islanders voice, and he worked in Atlanta for part of the 1980s.

As the world mourns the loss of Sterling, here's a look at some of his most iconic calls.

"The Yankees win!" (AKA the Sterling Shake)

When the Yankees won, Sterling would call, "THEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Yankees win!" and do a little shake to put some emphasis on it. We had to include it.

"It is high! It is far! It is gone!"

Put this in the Hall of Fame of home run calls.

Bern Baby Burn!

We'll highlight some of his best home run calls that he'd make for each player. This is one for Bernie Williams.

"It's Gleyber Day! And like a Good Gleyber, Torres is there!"

Too perfect for Gleyber Torres.

"The Giambino!"

Also perfect for Jason Giambi.
