A few years ago Scully was announcing a game on the network and the guy he was announcing with asked Scully if he remembered Don Larson's perfect game in the World Series in the 50s. Scully said very matter of factly and without any reaction whatsoever, "I called it." The other announcer was speechless.

R.I.P. Wizard of Westwood, your players, fans, your students and your pupils high on life will miss you. What a moving short anecdote from Vin - the man of so many stories. Interesting that he and John would have bumped into each other like that on the Westside 50+ years ago.

I believe that this entire "Dodger Organization" want to completely forget and be ashamed that they ("The Dodgers") were Brooklyn. Wow, what money does to people...Technically, It was "The City Of New York's ( Robert Moses & Mayor Wagner's plus other NYC Politicians) Fault for allowing "The Dodgers" to leave their "Native Home" of Brooklyn New York. "Too Bad". Now, New York has the "Loosing Mets" who could hardly beat a "High School Varsity Baseball Team".
