Most will remember him as a broadcaster, more than a player. A great Yankee who gave one of the best induction speeches in Hall of Fame history.

RIP Scooter! You and Pee-Wee were the greatest N.Y. (Yank and Dodger) Shortstops until Derek Jeter.

Holy cow!

Thanks for all the memories during the years you broadcast for the Yankees.

A great old time Yankee is dead.

Rest in peace Phil Rizzuto.

Harry Caray, Mel Allen, Ernie Harwell, Jack Buck, and now Scooter Rizzuto.

At least Vin Scully is still with us.
