Vin Scully signs off after calling last game ever (Video)

Vin Scully

While quoting Dr. Seuss, Vin Scully delivered his final call ever as a broadcaster.

Sunday marked the final game Scully would call in his legendary career as he has decided to retire at the age of 88. The Dodgers lost the game to the Giants 7-1, and as the 9th inning was coming to a close, Scully quoted Dr. Seuss and urged fans not to cry because it’s over, but to smile because it happened.

Then after the game ended, Scully delivered this final message to viewers:

Scully of course closed his message with his signature sign off line: “So this is Vin Scully wishing you a very pleasant good afternoon wherever you may be.”

I called my mom to listen to his final inning together and that signature line we’ve heard hundreds of times. She was the biggest Dodgers fan in our house and always loved how he “raised the bar” for fans by educating them about historical, political and sports events, as well as the way he told such great stories. Of course, we’re just two of millions who felt the same way about Vin. He will be missed.
