    Listening to him during a game is better than listening to these studio shows on other stations. The man is a human encyclopedia of baseball. Listening to him now instead of the ESPN2 telecast. I hope he works until he's 100.

    He really is great. He is real old school and just reads off from stuff he finds in the team book for that year. Also his voice is like velvet and peanut butter mix together! His old school approach and the voice will never be beat.

    I'm an Angel fan, but I will listen to Vin in the car just for shits. The way he intertwines personal stories, player facts, and stats all while calling a game is nothing short of masterful.

    Everyone loves Vin Scully. That's just a fact.

    Still, it was cool to see Clayton Kershaw and other Dodgers legends show up to City Hall on Friday for the vote that led to Elysian Park Ave. in Los Angeles being changed to Vin Scully Avenue.

    To no surprise, the vote was unanimous. Who could possilbly vote against Vin Scully?

    The 2016 season is expected to be the last for the 88-year-old Scully.

    I watch most my baseball at the bar and they never have volume. Always country music on the juke box.

    Here at my dads for fathers day and we have the game on.

    Listening to his his really takes me back, as far back as i can remember.

    His voice is one of the few constants in sports since i was old enough to listen.


    His voice is truley timeless.

    I aint gonna lie, I balled like a baby when he was singing today after the game...no words to describe him or his calling of the game.
