As street dedications go, this event was probably the most captivating. Yesterday afternoon the City of Los Angeles and the Dodgers officially welcomed a street change that has been a long time coming. They renamed Elysian Park Avenue to Vin Scully Avenue. Jon Weisman at Dodger Insider has the complete story; including the entirety of Vin's speech:
“I don’t know you, and I miss you, believe me, each and every day. You have been so kind and so gentle, that again, as I said in my opening remarks, I’m overwhelmed. Just to hear your enthusiasm, the voice that comes roaring up out of the stands, there’s nothing like it.
