A treasure! His acceptance speech to the HOF (IIRC) was one of the humblest, classiest ever.

I really miss him now I am here in TX.

I listened to Vin Scully religiously in the 60’s and early 70’s as a young lad in Phoenix, Az.

No ball team in Az. at the time, closest was LA, and with Koufax, Drysdale, Maury Wills, Claude Osteen, Ron Fairly, et.al.

I hid underneath my blanket to muffle the sound of the radio so my parents couldn’t hear, while I was supposed to be asleep, night games, ya know.

Scully was and is still the greatest! Happy Birthday, Vin!

Blessings, bobo
