Hall-of-Fame broadcaster Vin Scully was released from the hospital and is doing well after taking a fall at his home earlier this week.
The 92-year-old voice of the Dodgers took the emergency in stride, joking in a statement shortly after the incident that it will be the last time he tries to slide headfirst. After returning home safely, Scully took the opportunity to thank the people who helped him through his dilemma.
“My sincerest thanks to the LA County Firemen and women who come to the rescue and always seem to be there when we need and to the excellent administration, doctors and nurses of Los Robles Hospital,” Scully said in a statement released by the team.
