More quotes by Vin Scully
I've always felt, it's a gift of God, whatever I have, whatever has made me do what I do for as long as I do it. But I know I can lose that in one second. A stroke. Whatever. One second. Blow the whole thing. So, when you do think about that, you realize how fortunate and how blessed you've been, and that's really how I feel.

All my life I've worked and I was so lucky to go from a radio station in Washington to the Dodgers and of course, it never stopped.

Vin Scully
Some people die twice: once when they retire, and again when they actually pass away. Fear of the first one is a big incentive for me to keep working.
Vin Scully
I love baseball and I don't want to be part of anything that would cheapen it or vulgarize it.
Vin Scully
When I was very small, maybe 8 years old, we had a big radio that stood on four legs, and it had a cross piece underneath it, and I used to take a pillow and crawl under the radio.
Vin Scully
Andre Dawson has a bruised knee and is listed as day-to-day. Aren't we all?
Vin Scully
There's that old saying: Squeeze the juice out of life before life squeezes the juice out of you. I will try to squeeze the remaining juice out of life.
Vin Scully
I've always felt that I was talking to one person. But I've never envisioned who that one person is.
Vin Scully
It is kind of lovely to be sitting alone, just thinking, very quiet, no one around. I don't feel alone or left out.
Vin Scully
I really love baseball. The guys and the game, and I love the challenge of describing things.
Vin Scully
Good is not good when better is expected.
Vin Scully
The roar of the crowd has always been the sweetest music. It's intoxicating.
Vin Scully
He (Bob Gibson) pitches as though he's double-parked.
Vin Scully
The only difference between a winning team and a losing team is one game. The winning team can win two out of three games...the losing team can only win one out of three.
