A treasure.

The greatest gift New York ever bestowed upon any other city!

In my memory, the sound of Vin Scully is the sound of summer. I feel sorry for the next generation of Los Angelenos to not have him.

Such a humble and devout man as well.

God bless you Vin! May we all celebrate your 100th birthday some years away!

Vin will be missed. What a dream job he had for 67 years. Amazing.

I grew up in So Cal during the era of Sandy Kofax, Don Drysdale etc.. and Vin Scully was there to chronicle it all.
His voice is the sound of summer for me as well. A fine man with a life well lived.

I live in Silverlake, right by Dodger Stadium. I cannot ever remember going to a Dodger game without bringing the radio to hear Vin Scully. Of course, everyone else was doing the same thing so his voice came in loud and strong in the stadium!
