Edward Joseph "Ed" Lucas Jr.[2] (born January 3, 1939) is a blind sportswriter, who covers the New York Yankees.

Biography

Lucas has been blind since 1951, when he was 12 years old. He was pitching in a pickup game on October 3, 1951—the day of Bobby Thomson's "Shot Heard 'Round the World"— when a line drive hit him in the face.[3] The accident resulted in the loss of his sight.[4] Since 1964, Lucas has been a reporter and broadcaster.[5]

Lucas is an alumnus of Seton Hall University, having received a bachelor's degree in communication arts.[6] In 2006, Lucas and his second wife, Allison Pfeifle, were the first couple to be married on the field of Yankee Stadium; they had been introduced to each other by Phil Rizzuto.[7]

Lucas was featured in Bleacher Boys, a 2009 documentary about blind baseball aficionados,[8][9] and in an April 2018 episode of SC Featured on ESPN.[10]
