Fred Hickman, the longtime sports broadcaster who was the first person seen and heard on the YES Network in 2002, died Wednesday at 66.
“Fred was a joy to work with and a joyful person,” Yankees announcer Michael Kay said in a statement. “A total pro that you felt comfortable with knowing he would lead you the right way on the air. He was the first voice ever heard on YES and his professionalism put us on the right track, a track we are on all these years later.
Hickman may be best-known for his work on CNN’s highlights show “Sports Tonight,” which was a rival to “SportsCenter,” which he would anchor later in his career. He won two CableACE awards and a New York Sports Emmy. He also formed Fred Hickman Communications, Inc. to provide broadcasting training retired athletes and media training for athletes, coaches and front office personnel.
