Vin Scully - Veteran Dodgers Sportscaster

Simply, the best.

Vin "Vinnie" Scully is the veteran baseball announcer for the Los Angeles Dodgers and considered by many to be the greatest baseball announcer of all time. His career in broadcasting began in Washington, D.C. at AM station WTOP. In 1950, the late Red Barber and Connie Desmond selected him to broadcast Brooklyn Dodgers games. Scully came with the Dodgers when they moved to Los Angeles in 1958.

Scully won the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association Outstanding Sportscaster Award four times, the Lifetime Achievement Emmy Award, the "Ronald Reagan Media Award," a Hollywood Walk of Fame Star, the California Sportscaster of the Year (21 times), and, in 1982, induction into the broadcast wing of the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.

Scully is a native of New York City where he was born on November 27, 1927. He served a few years in the U.S. Navy then went on to graduate from Fordham University in 1949 where he played basketball.
