Over 400 games were played between the Giants and the Dodgers in May’s career….it’s hard to believe……and Vince had broadcast all of them for the Dodgers…Unbelievable But True…..

NO WAY is this the first time they met. Vin interviewed him the year they met in New York City when he was the Dodger broadcaster and Willie a rookie. They saw each other and spoke hundreds and hundreds of times at Hall of Fame functions, banquets, the Polo Grounds, Ebbets Field, Seal Stadium, Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Candlestick Park, Dodger Stadium, Shea Stadium and across America for over 60 years. To imply this is the first time these two great men met is ludicrous and ignorant. Absurd.

It's nonsense to say these two had never met before this. In the extended version of this encounter in 2016, Willie says to Vin, "You took care of me when I used to play in L.A. all the time," though we don't learn of those specifics from half a century prior. Besides, do you really think Scully would call Mays "Buck" if they had not previously met each other? Come on.

How could this possibly be the first time these 2 met. I’m sorry I find that hard to believe given they spent all that time in the baseball scene in NY in 50s. And the dodger giant rivalry in the 1960s. I’m sorry I don’t think that right.

Willie hit 660 home runs, 54 short of Ruth. But in Candlestick park all those years, Willie was robbed of many home runs due to the winds that blew in from left field. For my money, the greatest all around player of all time.

Also, during the Bonds era, they installed a chain link in the outfield to make it easier to hit homers. And Aaron, God bless him, played in the launching pad in Atlanta. Mays is truly the greatest of all time. And so is Vinnie!

Well, there it is folks. One of the greatest broadcasters of all-time, who saw more baseball greats than we can count, in awe of the greatest all-around player he ever saw, Willie Mays. Any man who bled Dodger Blue like Vin Scully, saying Willie Mays of the hated Giants was the best ever...well, you can take it to the bank.

Charge the ball don't let it eat you up waiting for it! Get your body behind those ground balls down on one knee ! Field those grounders two hands on your glove cstching those fly balls!

Willie Mays was my favorite player growing up in the 1960’s even though most of my friends favored Mickey Mantle. I copied his batting stance, but my dad forbade me from any “basket” catches. What a career he had. He and Babe Ruth. Take your pick for 1 and 2 all time.
