Vin Scully will continue broadcasting

When you think of the Los Angeles Dodgers, you can’t help but hear the voice of Vin Scully, their long time broadcaster. He has been the voice of the Dodgers for 61 seasons, and today there is news that he will return for his 62nd.

Vin Scully has plans on calling all the Dodgers home games and inter-divisional road games next season, like he is currently doing this season. When asked if next season would be his last, the 82 year old told reporters that he doesn’t have any plans beyond next season as of yet.

ā€œI’m just honored and humbled to continue my association with the Dodgers, which has been a major part of my life,ā€ Scully said.

When questioned about why he continues to work at such an old age, Scully classically responded, “I just love it so much. It’s like a very good marriage. I found when push came to shove, I just did not want to leave. My wife understood it, God bless her. ”

Scully is known for his cheerful attitude, and smiling face around the Dodgers broadcast booth. He is known for making clever quotes throughout his years as a broadcaster, such as, “Good is not good when better is expected.”

Dodgers fans look forward to at least one more season of listening to Vin Scully’s voice.
