Vin Scully was a fan of the New York Giants. Mel Ott was his favorite player. In 1950, he began announcing Brooklyn Dodgers games. Today, after 67 seasons, he is retiring as announcer for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Ironically, the last game of the Dodgers' season is against the San Francisco Giants, at Pac Bell Park.
I have always hated the Dodgers, but admired Vin Scully. When I was young, I discovered that I could tune in Los Angeles AM stations at night, including KFI, which carried the Dodgers. I like his voice. It is soothing. I wish him well.
Vin Scully, or his voice, has appeared in many movies, usually as the Dodgers' announcer.
Ironically, his first wife, who died tragically young, was Joan Crawford. Not that Joan Crawford.
