Me, too. I remember my dad and brothers listening to the Dodgers and Vin Scully when I was in 7th grade or so and living outside LA in the Mojave Desert. Good times....good times.

“Big Giants fan here in Nor Cal too”

I was born in Napa and grew up in Vallejo (left there in 1972). Loved listening to Lon Simmons call the Giants games on KSFO. He also did a great job with the 49er games as well.
