With the World Series being played this month, take a bit of class time to share something of the life of Vin Scully, the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodger announcer for 67 years, from 1950 to 2016. Vin is noted for several great calls in World Series history, including:
- Don Larsen’s perfect game for the Yankees in the 1956 World Series, the only perfect game in World Series history.
- Kirk Gibson’s thrilling game 1 home run for the Dodgers over the Athletics in 1988.
- The Met’s come-from-behind win over the Red Sox in 1986.
Vin is also a devout Catholic. After sharing something of Vin’s life, pray a decade of the Rosary led by Vin Scully who has recorded his recitation of the Rosary in connection with Immaculate Heart Radio.October is the month of the Rosary.
