During the 2019 baseball season, Ruocco stepped up as the main voice of the New York Yankees on the YES Network. In addition to Ruocco’s regular slate of Yankees broadcasts, he took over for YES Network’s play-by-play broadcaster Michael Kay as he underwent vocal cord surgery. Ruocco also filled in for the legendary radio sportscaster John Sterling on WFAN, who took off his first radio broadcast after working 5,060 straight Yankees games since 1989.

In 2019, Ruocco came in seventh on American news blog The Big Lead’s “40 Under 40: Sports Media Talents”, alongside CBS’s Tony Romo and Fox Sports’s Joe Davis. The Big Lead states: “What a resume Ryan Ruocco is going to have when all is said and done. Ruocco has now added DAZN boxing to his arsenal and is far from being done. He captures big moments like Mike Breen and should be in the running to one day replacing him in calling the NBA Finals. That goes along with being the presumed future voice of the New York Yankees.”

Ruocco is a native of Fishkill, New York. He is a graduate of Hackley School in Tarrytown, New York and Fordham University. Ruocco became engaged to private equity executive Andrea Ferzoco in January 2019.

Ruocco saw his first action as a lead play-by-play man for the YES Network when he called a series between the New York Yankees and Houston Astros in June 2015.
