“In So Cal I was lucky to grow up listening to three of the best sports casters ever: Chick Hearn (Lakers), Vin Scully (Dodgers) and Bob Miller.

Bummer I can hear none of them no more. Another piece of my youth gone”

Ditto, knew no other Dodger announcer, Vin was there before I was born. There have only been two Kings Announcers. Also Dick Engburg did a nice stint with the Rams and Angels back in the day, another Hall of Famer. Chickie Baby, what more can you say.

LA was lucky to have such an awesome trio of broadcasters.

Vin was there before everyone was born. He first called games at Ebbets Field for the Brooklyn Dodgers...
