Interesting re Scully. I would never assume that announcers who never played have really great insight into the game. Great stories yes. But deep insight about the game? I think of the NFL. Al Michaels and Joe Buck know more than I do, but Tony Romo has a level of insight that is miles deeper than either of those two. A-Rod and Ron Darling in baseball. Tim McCarver. John Madden a former coach. As former players-coaches, their understanding of the game is much much deeper than your ordinary announcer. Vin obviously saw a ton and is a great storyteller.

If the person was forced to answer every question you asked him honestly, then it would have to be the Babe. With no grandiose embellishment, just truth, that would be one helluva fun conversation.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
