The deserved accolades and touching remembrances have continued to pour in since the sad news of the recent passing of the legendary Vin Scully. Among the many tributes to the beloved baseball and broadcasting legend, one of the most notable and eloquent came from the Mets’ own Gary Cohen, emphasizing how clearly and plainly Scully was the broadcasting GOAT.
Most definitively known for his sterling 67 years of work with the Dodgers starting in 1950, Scully belonged first to Brooklyn and then to Los Angeles—an impressive double to pull off for anyone—much less a boy from The Bronx.
