Meanwhile, current TV voice Joe Davis has continued the Scully storytelling tradition on Dodger broadcasts, in his own style.
and the way they finally snuck out of the stadium amid the crush of their fans.
Do you want to know who has been scouring YouTube, listening and learning? Joe Davis. The current TV voice of the Dodgers has continued what has become a Dodger broadcast tradition, weaving stories into the play-by-play, and he has done so while also accommodating a color analyst, which Scully didn’t have to do.
“Thank you for saying that,” he said Friday evening. “It means a lot. I think that a big part of the play-by-play person’s job is that, to make the analyst the star. You know, they’re the ones whose opinion the viewers care about. So how can I draw that out of them? How can I take them where they want to go? How can I make them be the best they can be.”
“… I recognized that Vin’s storytelling was a big part of what made him so special for so long. And while acknowledging I’ll never be half the storyteller he was and I’ll never be the announcer he was, I’ve tried to embrace that part of his broadcast. And part of the responsibility, I think, of being the guy to follow him is incorporating that element into what we do. So I’ve taken a lot of pride in trying to incorporate that.
