Vin Scully Calls Jimmy Kimmel's Home Run 

Right lol

He was about to cry.

Everyone is a fan of Vin Scully. Voice of my childhood

Same

Yeah, that was a cool genuine moment

Okay, wow this is one of the few times where RU-vid aren't mean or sarcastic. I'm Korean American and the first time i heard Vin was when Chan Ho Park came to Majors in the 90s. At first i just wanted to watch and listen Chan Ho, but i stayed with the team because of Vin Scully. He can read a phone book and i will listen the entire time. Los Angeles has been lucky to have someone so magnificent for generations. Along with Chick Hearn, Los Angeles have been blessed to have such legends for our sports teams. (also awdswimmer2 sorry about 2002 season, also Angels fan, lol)

I think Vin has had that effect on a lot of people. I've only lived in the LA area for a couple years and only just starting listening to his broadcasts recently, but I'll never forget how comfortable and at peace I felt listening to him call a baseball game. It felt like coming home after a long time away. I love my Giants, and our broadcasters (Kruk and Kuip and Jon and Dave) will always be my favorite, but Vin stole a part of my heart from SF. He was just undeniably great at what he did; I could see immediately why he became a SoCal icon. The man is made of nothing but class, and I've never watched/listened to one of his broadcasts without learning something new about either baseball history, how the teams are doing, or something about one of the player's background (sometimes even about one of the Giants). He set the standard that all other baseball commentators and broadcasters have been and will be judged by for a long time to come. Oh, I was too young and focused on other sports (hence the username) in 2002 to be too hurt by that loss, and I've got not problem with Angels fans. The loss that hurts the most right now is seeing Matt Moore's 8 inning, 4 hit, 2 run night go down the drain in the 9th against the Cubs. I told my buddy (Dodger fan) back at the trade deadline that the Giants' decision not to look for/pick up a closer might cost them a shot at the 4th championship. Turns out that that's exactly what ended their season. Losing in the NLDS hurts enough, but to have seen it coming for over two months and be anxious about it the whole time made it that much worse when I saw it happening in front of me. Now it's got me in a tough spot: either root for the Cubs to beat the Dodgers, like I normally would, or root for the Dodgers to keep the Cubs from winning a title then losing in the WS. I had planned on rooting for the Cubs, but after that Game 4...we'll see...

I started to cry

we'd show up at Chavez Ravine early. Drink, bbq, and listen to Scully for the first 2 innings then go inside. #toliveanddieinLA

i don't like the "former" part. although true, he will ALWAYS be the voice of the dodgers

Probably never even been to an actual ball game before...

nice sarcasm detector

where do they get these guys?!

It must be. So many announcers are happy to do it for decade after decade.

dasda asda you really gotta love it nothing beats spending the evening at the park enjoying some cold ones and some franks

dasda asda sarcasm hppefully... worst sport I've ever seen

I mean... You can always just watch it and see for yourself. Playoffs ain't over yet

it's definitely not for the average viewer. It's more about the individual players, strategies, and background than the actual 'action' like a football game or basketball game.

to live and die

Jaee Hovaa no
