Vincent Edward Scully was an American sportscaster.
He was best known for his 67 seasons calling games for Major League Baseball’s Los Angeles Dodgers, beginning in 1950 and ending in 2016.
His was the longest tenure of any broadcaster with a single team in professional sports history, and he was second only to Tommy Lasorda by two years, in terms of the number of years associated with the Dodgers organization in any capacity.
He retired at age 88 in 2016, ending his record-breaking run as the team’s play-by-play announcer.
Who is Vin Scully’s son Michael A. Scully?
Michael A. Scully was 33 years old when he died in a helicopter crash.
Michael died from the shock of the Northridge earthquake in January 1994.
Also, before Michael’s death, he worked for ARCO Transportation. Finn’s son, Michel, was checking for a leak in an oil pipeline near Fort Tejon, California when he had a serious accident.
Michael’s death must have been difficult for his family. Losing his wife and son, who he loved so much, could have been very difficult for Finn Scully.
