From Dyan LeBourdais and the NY Islanders Official Website:
Waking up every day to do something that has inspired you since you were a child is not something many people can say about their lives. Howie Rose, the Islanders and Mets play-by-play voice, is one of the lucky few.
In the summer of 1961, Rose fell in love with baseball. Just a few miles from his childhood home in the Bronx stood Yankee Stadium. Though, Rose was not a casual or periodic visitor to the historic ballpark. His father and extended family were huge Yankee fans that spent countless summer afternoons and evenings rallying around their favorite team.
