Vin Scully Takes Over Twitter Tomorrow! - Lasorda's Lair - Lasorda's Lair - A Los Angeles Dodgers Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

]]> Wednesday! Wednesday! Wednesday! Vincast! The greatest broadcaster in Baseball and sports history, Dodger legend Vin Scully will be holding a special Vincast on twitter during and before the game on Wednesday afternoon. Unfortunately Vinny is unable to broadcast any of the games, but even just having him on twitter during the game is a joy.

Normally Vin doesn’t travel with the team for road games out of California. Vin currently broadcasts al Dodger home games, and all road games within California. He also still calls the games in Arizona. During the interleague series against the Red Sox at Boston in 2010, saw Vin make the trip out there to call one of those games.

So don’t miss out! Vin Scully will take over the Dodger’s twitter account on Wednesday afternoon! This is the first time he has ever taken over twitter. You can also tweet your questions at him using the hashtag  #VinScully. If you remember Vin is somewhat familiar with twitter. Last season he was able to rally the troops to get A.J. Ellis trending worldwide, after he hit two home runs in that game. Vin Scully himself has also been trending on twitter many times. Vin has talked about twitter, and what he thought a tweet was before during games. Having Vin on twitter is an honor for all of twitter. I think twitter should be re-named Vintter.

So don’t forget to be on twitter during tomorrow’s game, to catch the first ever Vin Scully Tweetcast! Viva Vin!

Additional Spring Training Games Will Be Televised and Vin Scully Will Call Six - Lasorda's Lair - Lasorda's Lair - A Los Angeles Dodgers Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

]]> Monday, February 25th will be the first time we will be graced with Vin Scully’s iconic voice in 2013. I was highly disappointed to find out that only three Dodger Spring Training games were originally to be televised from Arizona, but Friday it was announced that Prime Ticket will now broadcast four Cactus League games.

Vin Scully will announce six games-all four on Prime Ticket and two on KCAL. Last season, Scully only announced two Spring Training games.

Here is an updated list of the Dodger Spring Training television schedule including the Vinny games:

v  Monday, February 25 vs. Chicago Cubs 12:05 p.m. (Prime Ticket) Vin Scully

v  Thursday, February 28 vs. Angels 12:05 p.m. (Prime Ticket) Vin Scully

v  Friday, March 1 vs. Angels 12:05 p.m. (FOX Sports West) Angels broadcast

v  Tuesday, March 5 vs. Padres 12:05 p.m. (FOX Sports San Diego) Padres broadcast

v  Thursday, March 7 vs. Texas 12:05 p.m. (Prime Ticket) Vin Scully

v  Sunday, March 17 vs. Milwaukee 1:05 p.m. (KCAL) Vin Scully

v  Monday, March 18 vs. Arizona 1:05 p.m. (Prime Ticket) Vin Scully

v  Saturday, March 23 vs. Chicago White Sox 7:05 p.m. (KCAL)

v  Tuesday, March 26 vs. Colorado 7:05 p.m. (KCAL) Vin Scully

Like last year, Vin Scully will announce the St. Patrick’s Day game versus the Brewers. St. Patty’s Day was always a big celebration for the O’Malleys back in Dodgertown days. The parties were legendary.

While the additional television broadcasts are great, it came to my attention that the Angels have a 23-game Spring Training game broadcast schedule this year by FOX Sports West and Prime Ticket.

Nonetheless we only have a few more days before we hear those magical words from Vinny….”It’s time for Dodger baseball!”
