Emmanuel Berbari enters his third season on the New York Yankees broadcast team for WFAN in 2025, hosting the postgame show and calling play-by-play. On the TV side, he serves as a play-by-play broadcaster for FOX Sports' coverage of Big East Basketball and regularly appears on SportsNet New York (SNY) as an on-air contributor.

Berbari's WFAN work began behind the scenes (2018-21) and branched into roles as a talk show host and update anchor, concurrently broadcasting for the Hudson Valley Renegades (Yankees High-A affiliate), serving as "Voice of the Saints" at Siena College, and more. In 2023, he made his MLB play-by-play debut on Yankees Radio at 24 years old.

As Berbari sought reps and professional experience behind the mic, his early play-by-play reps included stops with the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League, the Chatham Anglers in the Cape Cod Baseball League, the Atlantic 10 and others on ESPN's digital platforms. In 2019, he gained his first professional baseball experience around his hometown team, covering the Yankees as a full-season credentialed beat reporter. 

A proud Fordham and WFUV alum, Emmanuel was Sports Manager at the university's 50,000-watt NPR affiliate, where he was the lead play-by-play announcer for Fordham Athletics — earning recognition as the first three-time recipient of the Marty Glickman Award for Excellence in Play-By-Play.

Emmanuel has been honored to receive five awards from the New York State Broadcasters Association and Associated Press, and was twice named an All-American as part of STAA's Jim Nantz Award. He is a Long Island (Greenlawn, NY) native who enjoys playing the guitar, listening to early 2000's music, rewatching his favorite TV shows, and never missing a morning (& sometimes afternoon/early evening!) iced coffee.
