LOS ANGELES — There is no better way to begin an appreciation of Vin Scully, who died Tuesday at age 94, than with his own words:
“There’s 29,000 people in the ballpark and a million butterflies. ... I would think that the mound at Dodger Stadium right now is the loneliest place in the world.”
That was Scully’s call of Sandy Koufax’s perfect game in 1965. I wasn’t yet born then, but I can hear his comforting voice well.
