Actor and comedian Yankees fan, Joe Piscopo, is one of the earliest stars of the popular TV show “Saturday Night Live.” He did a great impersonation of Frank Sinatra singing “My Way.”
During a celebrity softball event at Yankee Stadium with the proceeds going to the Boomer Esiason Foundation, which fights cystic fibrosis, on June 27, 2015, I had the pleasure of taking Joe and his son Michael on a mini-tour of the world-renowned memorial, Monument Park. This father and son duo came to many other games at the Stadium.
While on another visit to Yankee Stadium, Joe introduced me to tv business anchor and talk show host Maria Bartiromo. Later, at a Columbus Day parade up Fifth Ave. in New York City, which Joe and Maria hosted, they invited me to the booth in the picture from where the telecast evolved.
