Stern Strikes: Radio Icon on the Baseball Diamond

In the mid-1980s, a radiant snapshot captured an intriguing mix of pop culture—Howard Stern, a celebrated radio personality, on the field at Shea Stadium, wielding a softball bat. In 1985, Howard traded his microphone for a glove to join an ensemble of stars in a celebrity softball game.
Here was the aspiring broadcaster, on the cusp of launching “The Howard Stern Show,” not in a radio booth, but beneath the glow of the stadium lights. Though Howard might be better recognized for his provocative on-air persona, this picture displays an alternative facet of his identity – a sportsman, a competitor, and a star among stars in the heart of the Big Apple.
