Since 1950, the instantly recognizable voice of Vin Scully has invited listeners to pull up a chair for his peerless playbyplay sports reporting. Recruited and mentored by the legendary Red Barber, Scully has narrated NBCs Game of the Week, twelve AllStar Games, eighteen nohitters, and twentyfive World Series, describing players from Duke Snider to Orel Hershiser to Manny Ramirez, with hundreds in between. Scully has made every sportscasting Hall of Fame, received an Emmy Lifetime Achievement Award and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and been named Sportscaster of the 20th Century by the American Sportscasters Association. This long overdue biography of Vin Scully is written by Curt Smith, called the voice of authority on baseball broadcasting (USA Today).
