Ah man...

Vin Scully was the 2nd greatest announcer in the his history of sports.

Chick Hearn was No.1.

Listening to him call a game was like nothing else, to me.

He made every person involved, human.
No matter how much they made or how famous they were.
He made a MLB game seem like watching a local, (serious?) kegger league affair.

I would watch an LA Dodgers game JUST because he was calling the game.

He will be missed.

Vin Scully was a storyteller, and nobody ever told the story of baseball better. He called games with such elegance and grace. He spoke only when necessary, allowing the broadcast to breathe when it demanded. He made baseball a more beautiful game. RIP

He called the Redskins vs St. Louis Cardinals NFL game for CBS in 1975. Mel Gray’s infamous game-tying TD (non)-catch.
(from memory) Right before that play, Scully explains, “We’ve been here for nearly three hours and it all comes down to this…”

Jon Miller does a great Vin Scully impression. Maybe the Dodgers can hire him away from the Giants.
