Tributes have been pouring in from fans, media members and athletes alike following Vin Scully’s death
Scully began his career with the Dodgers in 1950, when the team was still in Brooklyn and remained in his role when the franchise moved across the country to Los Angeles in 1958. His unique broadcasting style–solo, without an analyst as a partner—quickly endeared himself to the fans and local community, and also allowed him to grow into a baseball icon nationwide.
“He was the voice of the Dodgers, and so much more. He was their conscience, their poet laureate, capturing their beauty and chronicling their glory from Jackie Robinson to Sandy Koufax, Kirk Gibson to Clayton Kershaw,” the Dodgers said in a statement. “Vin Scully was the heartbeat of the Dodgers—and in so many ways, the heartbeat of all Los Angeles.”, when he was 89.
