I don’t like to be alone, but I do cherish the moments that I’m alone with a good book. Vin Scully Read Quote
To be honest, I’ve never been interested in how many games I’ve done and seen. It doesn’t mean anything to anybody. All I know is I’m eternally grateful for having been allowed to work so many games. Vin Scully Read Quote
That really is my trademark. Day to day, week in, week out. If something happens and the crowd roars, I shut up. Vin Scully Read Quote
On radio, you’re in your own little world. Every time I’d be doing a possible no-hitter – I think I’ve done something like 25 no-hitters and a couple of perfect games – I would always put the date on the tape. Not for me, but for the player, so that 25 or 30 years later when he’s playing it for his kids or grandkids, you have that date. Vin Scully Read Quote
The game is just one long conversation, and I’m anticipating that, and I will say things like ‘Did you know that?’ or ‘You’re probably wondering why.’ I’m really just conversing rather than just doing play-by-play. I never thought of myself as having a style. I don’t use key words. And the best thing I do? I shut up. Vin Scully Read Quote
