"...Rizzuto delighted TV and radio listeners for four decades, his voice dripping with his native Brooklyn. He loved his favorite catch-phrase - exclaiming "Holy cow!" when Roger Maris hit his 61st home run - and often shouted "What a huckleberry!"..."



I don't remember him as a player (he was a bit before my time), but I remember him as a broadcaster. Rest in peace, Scooter.
