Video: Vin Scully remembers first impression of Sandy Koufax
Posted Jul 8, 2016
It's a thrill for Vin Scully at this time each year when the Dodgers invite former players back to Dodger Stadium for the Old-Timer's Game. With a certain lefty in the building, it reminded Scully of the first time he saw one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history. "I must be the worst baseball scout in the whole world," Scully said. "I'll tell you why. It has to do with Sandy Koufax."
