Then, in September of 2018, Singleton changed course, saying that he’d decided to come back for 2019, which would be his last year.

That’s according to a YES Network executive in Andrew Marchand’s New York Post preview of YES’s coverage plans.

YES president of programming and production John Filippelli has been three-for-three in talking Ken Singleton out of retirement, but Filippelli sounded like this will be it.
