FameRank: 6

"Vincent Edward" ""Vin"" "Scully" is an American Sports commentator/sportscaster, best known as the Sports commentator/play-by-play announcer for the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team. He has been with the team since History of the Brooklyn Dodgers/its days in Brooklyn. His 65 seasons with the Dodgers (1950–present) is the longest tenure of any broadcaster with a single team in professional sports history, and he is second by one year to only Tommy Lasorda in terms of number of years with the Dodgers organization in any capacity. Scully currently calls most Dodger home games (and selected road games) on SportsNet LA television and KLAC radio. He is known for his Sweetness/dulcet voice, lyrically descriptive style, and signature introduction to Dodger games: "It's time for Dodger baseball! Hi, everybody, and a very pleasant good (day/evening) to you, wherever you may be."

And look who's coming up. All year long, they looked to him (Kirk Gibson) to light the fire. All year long, he answered the demand; until he was physically unable to start tonight with two bad legs, a left hamstring, and a swollen right knee. And with two out, you talk about a roll of the dice. This is it!
