VIN SCULLY REMEMBERED: 'His voice will always be heard and etched in all of our minds forever,' Dodgers president and CEO Stan Kasten said in a statement.
Vin Scully, the iconic broadcaster who called Dodgers games for nearly seven decades, has died, the team announced. He was 94."We have lost an icon," Los Angeles Dodgers president and CEO Stan Kasten said in a statement."The Dodgers' Vin Scully was one of the greatest voices in all of sports. He was a giant of a man, not only as a broadcaster, but as a humanitarian. He loved people. He loved life. He loved baseball and the Dodgers. And he loved his family.
Broadcaster Vin Scully waves to the crowd during the seventh inning between the San Francisco Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers at AT&T Park on October 2, 2016 in San Francisco, California. Over the course of his Hall of Fame career, Scully delivered play-by-play and commentary for some of the most memorable moments in Major League Baseball history, including his iconic call of Hank Aaron's record-breaking 715th home run in 1974.
"Why me?" Scully pondered in his acceptance speech."Why, with the millions and millions of more deserving people, would a red-haired kid with a hole in his pants and his shirttail hanging out, playing stickball in the streets of New York, wind up in Cooperstown? Why me, indeed? I don't have the answer."
"Today we mourn the loss of a legend in our game," Commissioner of Baseball Robert D. Manfred, Jr. said in a statement Wednesday."Vin was an extraordinary man whose gift for broadcasting brought joy to generations of Dodger fans. In addition, his voice played a memorable role in some of the greatest moments in the history of our sport."
