Jim, I can't speak as to why Vinny is so popular everywhere else, but if you grew up like I did in the Los Angeles area during the 60's and 70's, you were tuned in to your radio every game to listen to Vin Scully paint verbal pictures of the wonderful game of baseball. I've heard a few other announcers that I like almost as well, but never anyone better. As kids we were very fortunate to have both Scully and Chick Hearn to listen to.
