Hall of Fame broadcaster Vin Scully, 88, has embarked on his final season with the Dodgers, for whom he’s been broadcasting games since 1950 – when the club was in Brooklyn. Known for his dulcet voice and poetic touch, Scully is the longest-tenured broadcaster – 67 years - with a single club in professional sports history.

He’s also lent his voice to iconic moments beyond Brooklyn and Los Angeles, from World Series calls to a dynasty-launching Catch on the gridiron.
